Hey guys,

I am just sitting here thinking / paging through diagrams on google images looking for something that explains flaperon control in folding wing aircraft. I see cable diagrams and various lay outs but i am having trouble conceiving how input from the control stick L<<<>>>>R operates the control brackets in the flaperon when the wings basically can pivot all the way back. Are there cables routed in the wing that must be disconnected? What is this sorcery.

Thanks for any help,

Mike.
