Not sure, but wasn't one of the later updates to use a 2" flap actuator in place of the 4" flap actuator?

No, the travel on the old actuator with the exposed microswitches was under 2 inches as I recall. Of course they might have redesigned the arm on the flap torque tube. But I don’t think the angle of travel of the flaps changed on the plans. The reason for the new actuator was the cost of the old unit.

From Alan Melton (meltonoso(at)cox.net (meltonoso(at)cox.net)). Our airplane likewise landed nose heavy, resulting in excessive wear on the plastic block through which the strut runs, and ultimately warping of the firewall. Our solution, which so far seems to be working very well, is to use no more than half flaps and a 60 knot airspeed on final. The result is much less nose drop on landing.
