There is an electric flap conversion
for the IV-P that uses the electric motor system from the Legacy.
I have that installed on N24XE. 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).
By the way, I believe the original recommendation was 10 degrees
of flaps for take-off. With the hydraulic system I use the
aileron maximum deflection to set the flaps for take-off. 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.

Was the lVP ever offered a flap actuator lever /
system that utilized presets similar to what Cessna
uses?
