Buy them and you are allright.
Nope, sorry. The Spit only had two-position flaps, with setting of 0 and about 90 degrees. Why do you think the lever in the cockpit isn't more precise? It's only got two positions, down and up. They had to wedge blocks of wood in the Seafire flaps to get a ten or fifteen degree position for carrier takeoffs. I'm quite aware that it's possible to vary the flap position on an axis in the game, I've got an X45 with two rotaries on it so I could quite easily bind flaps to one of them, but I don't want to because I think it's unrealistic.
