What have you all done with the flap controller I'm playing around with it today and it seems to be loose ,does it hold when you put on flaps or do you have to hold it up? Mine has the leather in it, but seems like it should have clicks or something, any advise?

Jerry,

I tighten mine tighter when mine gets loose and put a cotter pin back in.
Mine holds at any flap setting in flight fine

Jerry,
It is held in place by friction. You have to tighten the control handle until in flight air pressure will no longer move it. Looks like a poor system but it does work.

I had this problem many years ago, and after a lot of adjustments, i found the problem. The leather washer had compressed a bit with use, and adjusting the bolt holding the handle to the washer/welded on washer didn't work. The metal pieces were hiting each other before the leather washer could do its job. A thicker leather washer cured the problem.
