Auto Credit Based on Ronoc's Carrier based sub hunter

Playing around with flap designs. Does help. On take off use half flaps, leave controls neutral until the first hint of tail lift then apply full aft stick. On landing use half flaps until touchdown then apply full flap and full brakes. Stops on a dime. Feel free to improve on this. Just trying the concept.
