I'm preparing a huge report for Heatblur to fix errors in the official Viggen RC1 manual. I'm currently reading the "Flaps" section, and this is what I can read:

 

Page 78 :

When retracted the flaps are either retracted to a positive (upwards) position of 4 or 7° depending on the aircraft load out. Due to certain tail-heavy ordnance such as AKAN gun pods and ARAK rocket pods, the flaps are set to a -7° position to offset this imbalance. This setting cannot be accessed by the pilot but is set by the ground crew when arming and readying the aircraft.
Page 81 :

Position IN: Upper position. Landing gear retracted. Canard flaps retracted and angled -4° or -7° depending on load out setting.
This raises two questions:

 

1/ Do you agree the text in bold should read "-4° or -7°"?

 

2/ I've made a test ingame, and something bothers me. Shouldn't a -4° or -7° angle be visible from the external view? (see attached screenshots of aircraft with various ordnances)
