Hello everyone and sorry about my English.
Is there any way to configure the flap canoe degree?
I've merged a 747-400 Posky/PMDG. It works fine except because of the outter flap on the right wing. When I set flap 5 or 10, the tip of the canoe, only on the right wing, appears through the flap.
I'd like to understand the flap instrucions in aircraft.cfg to try to solve this. My current flap configuration is below (came from Brzl, posted here in Avsim forum):

/[flaps.0]
/type = 1                      // Trailing edge
/span-outboard = 0.8           // 0.0 .. 1.0
/extending-time = 25           // seconds
/flaps-position.0 = 0          // pseudo-degrees
/flaps-position.1 = 0.00,280   // 1 - no TE
/flaps-position.2 = 25.0,260   // 5
/flaps-position.3 = 27.5,240   // 10
/flaps-position.4 = 30.0,230   // 20
/flaps-position.5 = 31.5,205   // 25
/flaps-position.6 = 33.0,180   // 30
/lift_scalar = 1.0
/drag_scalar = 0.1
/pitch_scalar= 1.0
/system_type = 1               //Hydraulic

[flaps.0]
type = 1                      // Trailing edge

Can someone help me?

Hello Luis!

You were right! I've updated to SP3A PW4000 pax model and now it is OK. It is working fine.

Thanks a lot.

Regards.
