Hey Guys,
Here's basically the same circuit, but it stays live once you push the momentary switch. If I have to have two buttons, may as well not have to keep holding one down. The number of positions for the flaps is only limited by the number of switches you can fit. I am using a magnet attached to the flap rod that will trigger switches attached to an aluminum bar running parallel to the rod. The motor and linkage is from Aircraft Spruce. It's a bit pricey at $700 but very small and light. The whole thing will fit inside the console between the rear seats and weighs less than 3 lbs. About the same as the original manual lever.
My MAC control stick can be fitted with the dpst and momentary to go along with the roll and pitch trim switches. Almost like an F16 eh?
Regards,
Neal
