Hi Dan,
I don't suppose you'd have any photos or links to photos of the flap interconnect system for the HP-18? I'm interested to see how this was done. I'm still at an early enough stage of my build that I can consider different options and maybe incorporate them.
Phil.

...The flap interconnect system designed by Dick Schreder on the HP-18 was remarkably simple. It used a rotating cam to drive the aileron pivots up and down. The rotating axis was in line with the flap axis allowing a straight plug into the flap root ribs for automatic control hookup. It was even simpler than the spoil flap on the Carbon Dragon and far more effective. It is worth a look.
