mosquito flaps
 

Does any one knows why mosquito flaps dont go all the way down? The indicator goes until 70 degrees, but landing flaps stops at the 45 degrees mark.

From the Pilots manual > http://www.zenoswarbirdvideos.com/Im...oFB6Manual.pdf

"Operation of the flaps is controlled by the lever (29)
marked F to the right of the undercarriage selector lever.
A safety catch must be pushed to the right before flaps
DOWN can be selected. The selector lever should return
automatically to neutral on completion of a full opera-
tion. Any flap angle up to 45 ° can be obtained by return-
ing the lever to neutral when the desired angle is reached
according to the position indicator (37). The maximum
flap angle is 45° although the gauge is marked up to 70°."

Thanks for the reply! :)
