Interesting… I’ve tried 5 AMP fuses on three different RV’s to date, and all blew the fuses while
Trying to deploy the flaps during the first flight. Installing a 10 Amp fuse always solved the problem…

Fred:
I have a 5 amp fuse on mine too.  I haven't flown yet, so all the operation of the flaps has been in the hangar, but I have not yet blown a fuse. 

Do these things really use a clutch?  I thought it was a screw that just runs off the end of the threaded portion of the shaft at either end and then re-engages when you reverse it.  I don't know where I got that notion.  I could easily be wrong.  I'm just point out that min/max flap extension may not be high current events.
