Truss section for space station. Carried on my shuttle here: http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/threads/108397-KRTS-Radnor-%28Mk2-Shuttle%29?p=1691662#post1691662 Here it is attached to my space station on the right. The spacecraft on the bottom is Soyuz.

The wings don't flex. I didn't have to add any struts to the shuttle itself.

I present: Kerbal Reusable Transportation System (KRTS) Radnor shuttle Complete Vehichle Specs: -92 parts -Height: 18.4m -Width:4.3m -Length: 13.7m Shuttle Specs: -58 parts -Height: 3.3m -Width: 13.8m -Length: 16.8m -Cargo capacity: 2.75 tons Action Groups 1-toggle solar panels 2-toggle cargo bay and lights 3-toggle docking port 4-toggle antenna Throttle to 100% at launch.

Plain english please? I didn't get all of that. I think you mean that when the flaps are deployed, they can stall out and cause the plane to handle worse, but the flaps are retracted when cruising, so I don't think it would be an issue. Correct me if I am wrong.

K-24 Craft file: http://app.box.com/s/jw6lajqnh8byhw0fossn Press 1 to toggle flaps. Flaps are deployed by default. Also, yes, fuel lines are elastic.

Deploying the flaps only affected the plane a little bit. However, I could also make airbrakes and spoilers with the same design. Those could be more useful, especially with landing on short runways.

Using small hardpoints, landing gear, and fuel lines, I made a stock solution for aircraft flaps. These help you change a plane's aerodynamics in midair. When flaps are deployed, they extend the width of a plane's wings, generating more lift and drag. Flaps raised: Flaps deployed: Flight testing showed that deploying flaps helps on takeoff and landing. This design is still in testing. The design itself is simple. Landing legs push a wing up. A hardpoint is used as a hinge. Fuel lines are act as bungees, letting the flap move. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UAla14os-yA
