The first point is to understand what flaps do.
They create more wing surface area when they are extended, therefor creating more lift at slow speeds.
TAKEOFF:
Depending on the aircraft you are flying, may be a Cessna 170 or a 747, it all depends on the manufacturer of the aircraft. They may say at when you have X weight, you need no flaps but when you have a completely heavier weight, you may need flaps.

What else can I help you with?
What advantage do flaps and stats give an airplane?
Flaps and stats increase lift for takeoff and slow you down, for landing.
When are the flaps on an airplane most useful?
They are useful for takeoff to get lift and at landing for slowing down the plane.
A plane usually extends flaps from its wings during takeoff and landing What is a reasonable explanation?
The flaps help to increase lift, which is essential to the landing and takeoff phase[s].
Which parts are used to control lift at low speed for takeoff and landing?
Flaps and slatsSlats and flaps
Do you use flaps to land an airplane?
Yes, Flaps are both used to create lift (on takeoff) and to slow the aircraft (on Landing)
How does a flaps work?
Flaps are adjustable surfaces on the wings of an aircraft that increase lift during takeoff and landing. When deployed, they change the wing's shape and increase its camber, allowing the wing to generate more lift at lower speeds. This enables the aircraft to fly safely at slower speeds, which is crucial for landing and takeoff. Additionally, flaps can increase drag, helping to slow down the aircraft when needed.
Do aircraft wings move up and down?
Aircraft wings can move up and down as part of the normal operation of the aircraft. This movement helps to control the flight of the aircraft by adjusting the lift and drag forces acting on the wings. The wings can also move as part of the aircraft's flaps and slats system to change the wing's shape for takeoff and landing.
What does flaps do on a plane?
Flaps are movable surfaces on the wings of an aircraft that extend and retract to increase lift during takeoff and landing. By changing the wing's shape and increasing its surface area, flaps allow the plane to fly safely at slower speeds. This helps improve control and reduces the runway distance needed for takeoff and landing. Overall, flaps enhance the aircraft's performance during critical phases of flight.
How much flaps are used for takeoff?
The amount of flaps used for takeoff varies depending on the aircraft type, weight, and specific operating conditions. Typically, pilots may set flaps between 5 to 15 degrees for takeoff to enhance lift and reduce the required runway distance. However, each aircraft has specific flap settings recommended in the operating manual, and pilots must adhere to those guidelines for optimal performance and safety.
How do planes maneuver?
the wing flaps go up and down
Does a plane have to have flaps deployed on takeoff?
No. Not always. For many airplanes, it may be required if the airplane is fullly loaded.
What are the flaps on an airplane called?
They are quite literally called flaps, and they make the plane go up, down, left and right.
