Just thoughts and I'm sure you've had them too. Anyway, my undercarriage/flap 
operating
lever is in the order of a foot long, giving quite an advantage.

Are you going to connect the linear actuator straight on to the end of the flap
push-rod, or are you going to incorporate some sort of bell-crank linkage to
increase the leverage? Presumably there would be a limit to the length of 
bell-crank
arm before the linear actuator would run out of travel range.

The actuator can be "inched", no doubt. Just curious and I would love to see a
diagram of your proposed flap actuating system, if ever you can find the time.
