Each notch is about 4 degrees.

ARE YOUR FLAP SETTINGS ABOUT 5 DEGREES EACH AND IS THE HANDLE BETWEEN YOURS LEGS OR DID YOU MOVE IT OVER SOME

I am still building so I don't have any info on how it performs. I have not actually seen the QSP version so I don't know how they compare. If you want one, I'd recommend you get it from GSP. I didn't quite get how the QSP one works by looking at their photo. Mine has a pair of telescoping tubes. The lower pin is fixed to the outer tube and slides via a slot in the inner tube. The upper pin is fixed to the inner tube and slides through a slot in the outer tube. A spring between the cap and upper pin keeps the lower pin engaged in the slots of the frame. I just did the rigging of the flaperons this weekend and it seems to work pretty well. I have an anamated GIF of the handle if you are interested. PM me with your email if you want it.

I got the idea from a comercially available handle you can get from here:

I don't think it would be proper for me to deminish the value of their product by describing how to make your own.
