Why are you asking about the control?
I was flying as a joystick (Saitek X-52 flaps are assigned to the axis), and without the joystick on the keys!
Currently in patch 4.10 flaps have two strictly fixed positions - cleaned and released for landing!
However, the technical description described that the flaps released manually pilot smoothly without any fixed positions. The mechanism was similar to the manual jackscrew. See the drawing (I-16 type 24), the position of number 17, mechanism and the grip (knob) of handle-operated drive were located on the left side of airplane (left of the pilot):
