In conjunction with a Vertical Power VP-200 actuating system, it allows a single momentary switch to command multiple flap preset conditions (12 degrees, 20 degrees, 30 degrees, full).

The maximum down deflection for the aileron is 20 degrees (by the build book.) So I use somewhat more down deflection than 10 degrees. I have settled on 16 degrees on the electrical flap system. I always use flaps for takeoff and recommend it for all the reasons already expressed.
