I am in the process of upgrading an American Champion 7GC into a Citabria 7GCAA. I was originally looking at making it into a 7GCBC and installing the flaps but was put off by the 35 Lbs that flaps add to the basic airframe. I was therefore considering converting the ailerons into flaperons, having a maximum deflection of 10 degrees flap. I have seen this done on a Cub but never on a Citabria. If anyone has information on if this has been done before, or an idea on how best to do it or what to watch out for, please send me an e-mail.
Thanks
