Default RE: CMP BF109F BUILDING THREAD

The flap radiator feature as designed for the original aircraft present unique problems for the scale application. How do you set-up the geometry on the servo wheel to allow the lower flap to to reach 40 degress downward and the upper flap not to exceed 10 degress of upward travel? I'm using a slider on my JR 9303 to achieve the upward and downward travel.

The real BF109 used 40 degrees of flap for landing and 20 degress for take off. Can I set the plane up with these positions. My research also indicates that flaps were most always used for takeoff and landings. This will be my first plane using flaps on a low wing model that should weigh in at 15 pounds.

Any suggestions will be appreciated.
