Most likely the flaps do function aerodynamically, but a change in JSBSim
some months ago made it required to do some work to make the flaps animate.
See the aerosurface_scale component just after the flaps component in the
c172x.xml file:
<aerosurface_scale name="Flap Position Normalizer">
<input>fcs/flap-pos-deg</input>
<domain>
<min>0</min> <!-- Flaps actual minimum position -->
<max>30</max> <!-- Flaps actual maximum position -->
</domain>
<range>
<min>0</min> <!-- Flaps normalized minimum position -->
<max>1</max> <!-- Flaps normalized maximum position -->
</range>
<output>fcs/flap-pos-norm</output>
</aerosurface_scale>
