I use about 10 degrees of flaperons every time I  take off in my 801.  I leave them down until I reach cruise.  I find I  get out shorter and climb faster.  

  

 As I always warn, if you are in a strong  cross wind leave the flaps up!!!

  

 About 3 years ago the factory changed the up  setting on the flaperons. The plane actually flys a lot better with 2 or 3  degrees of flaperons down.  It is just 3 or 4 MPH slower.    

  

 Try it you will like it.
