Better to go the airplane junkyard and get the flap-follower
setup from a later-model Cessna. You move the lever to the setting you
want, and the flaps go directly to that setting. If they want too much
money, just have a look at how it's done and copy it. It's nothing
more than some microswitches (cheap at the electronics suppliers), a
lever, a cam, and a push-pull cable that provides the feedback from
the flaps.
