| Subject: | Flap setting-adjusting max flap travel? |
Hi Luigi, on My Esqual (great big flap model) I use 10 degrees for
take-off, maybe a little less.
A question: Is there a way of limiting the maximum flap travel
electrically? Within the motor unit? Anyone had one apart?
Thanks, Clive

Subject: Lightning-List: Flap setting
Hello everybody,
on the Esqual POH I found different instructions about the setting of
flap for take-off.
If the setting for landing is well described from Clive and others, with
all the problems arising with the trim, setting the flap at full travel,
is there any info
concerning the approximate setting for take-off ?
The Esqual manual says "between 20 and 30 degrees". I believe this is
not right.
Any one experienced different setting ? With the behaviour of the plane
in this condition.
Thanks
Luigi

Thank you , Clive.=0AMore or less the amount I calculate to be correct.=0AY
esterday I checked it and should be 11 degrees.The full travel is around 40
degrees. I believe 20/22 degrees is more than enough to land safely=0AIn c
ase of go-around, with 40 of flap, should be very dangerous to forget the f
lap down (or in case of failure to retract) because the stabilizer may suff
er the shadow of the wing and became inoperative. Situation not very good.
=0AFor the limit of travel, I opened a similar actuator and, inside, there
are two screws which allow to adjust the travel of the motor moving the swi
tches .=0ATomorrow I'll try to find the old actuator and take a picture.=0A
