Flap Droop Horton STOL kit

Does the Horton STOL kit add any flap droop? Or are the flaps mechanically set IAW the service manual?

Same question for the Robertson kit.

I highly recommend that if you are going thru the trouble to replace the spring cap, pull the entire actuator out and overhaul it.
