When I built my Allegro 2000 E-LSA the instruction manual stated that
the flaps in the "0" position (cruise) were to be four and one half
degrees above the neutral position of the ailerons (I.e. a slight
negative flap position). I have set my flaps this way. I have since seen
other Allegro 2000 SALSA planes that do not have this negative flap
position. In those planes ("0" flap position) the flaps are even with
the ailerons in the neutral position. Which is correct? In what position
do others have their "0" flaps set?

As I recall mine are even with the ailerons. It may be nice to have a neg
ative setting if that makes running at cruise speed a little more efficie
nt. I'm not sure, however, that I would want to cruise much closer to Vne
. There isn't a large margin as it is.
On a different subject... any Allegro owners near Spokane WA? I'm in town
for a couple days and am always interested in catching up with other own
ers and seeing their planes.
