WHAT'S A “Flip-Flap”? 
.
You’re on final and a little high. You know you can keep the nose up a bit, check your airspeed and apply flaps as you nose down to increase you descent angle. This will bring you right to the numbers at the proper airspeed to a perfect landing. You KNOW this!
.

Instead, you throttle back to idle, push the nose down and dive to the numbers. You flare just past the threshold and now you float down the runway bleeding off speed while your buddies wonder whether you’re landing or doing a low pass!
.

WE ALL DO IT…. OFTEN! Why? Because our airplanes have manual flap controls and, at best, they are just not user friendly. We avoid using them!
.
Manual flap controls distract the pilot when his attention is most needed. Often it takes muscle to operate them, and let’s not forget how we roller-coaster as we transition into flap extension. Ask your passenger!
.

Servo operated flap control, allows the pilot to quickly and effortlessly set the desired flap position without distraction. Just a quick touch of the control is all that’s needed. The servo actuator then follows in a gradual, smooth manner that allows the pilot time to compensate with elevator. Your flight path is smooth, airspeed is easily maintained, and your flying is suddenly BETTER!
.
How does BETTER FLYING equate with SAFER FLYING in your mind?
