Default Creating Flaps?

I have two (2) small electric Mustangs kits and want to be able to slow these down for landings. I would really appreciate some ideas for a One (1) servo flap installation. BTW: the Trailing Edge of these planes ends inside the fuse where the wing attachment screws are,sooo that means no torque bars mounted into the flap will work. The flaps must be activiated somewhere inside the wing. The only way I can think of is to add two(2) more servos!. Which is going to create a weight and power consumption problem. Any creative Warbird guys out there? thanks for reading and responding.

use nyrods, set your servo in the center of the wing and nyrods out to the flaps
