Flap travel

After adjusting the flaperons I decided to check throw of the flap system. The stop bolt that was installed between the seats had them set at about 11 degrees of deflection. I installed a shorter bolt and was able to get 13.2. The book says to set them at 15 or less. I looked over the linkage and it does not look like there is adjustment for anymore length throw. Any Idea.

Any Ideas?

Checking my flaps, I got a similar result.  Made me wonder how to even get more than 15 degs flap deflection.  Hey, congrats on getting your issues ironed out!  Great pix, too!  BTW, I am very close to putting the OI system in play. Gotta burn off 10+gallons of premix first!  Again, thanks!

Glad it will go to good use. 

Yeah I do not believe you could get over 13 with the stock linkage. It’s ok. It flys good with 13 degrees. 

More to come. :)
