Scott,
You're probably right on that one. Fewer linkages and bearings etc on the outback variant.
When calibrating flap position I kept the flaps loaded 'upward' to push all the lash in the direction seen in-flight.

Uh, this may be different for those LNC2's rigged with the outback gear
torque tube driven flap system.

One small point. On the ground the flaps are adjusted
and faired in at -7 degrees. In flight the effective angle is
different as the flaps are reflexed further up by air loads that may well
result in -10 degrees. This may be simulated on the ground by
manually lifting the trailing edge of the flap with it at its electrically
powered fully reflexed position and measuring that angle as the effective
flight angle. Don't be timid in lifting the TE.
