I intend to install a positive action limit switch (a micro-switch) in
place
of the magnetic switch, that will be physically actuated by the flap drive
lever at the full reflex position. That will eliminate this irritating
failure mode, once and for all.<
I replaced the magnetic limit switches with microswitches prior to the
first flight. I made a phenolic block that slides in the same track as the
magnetic switches. The phonelic has a microswitch attached. The moving
rod was tapped and a roll pin installed to activate the switches. Works good and has lasted 5 years now without a hitch.
