This plane is roughly based on what a PT-6 conversion of a Cessna 185 would be. Activate group 1 and the flaps will lower with the elevator trim. Note - with full flap extension and trim, glide speed is ~72mph. For landing, descend at this rate and with a quick flare, touchdown is at ~55. With a constant speed prop in full beta, that happens pretty quick!
