I could have put that more clearly.
On each side there are 2 outer and 2 inner control surface panels. The kit doesn't give the ailerons as two seperate halves but the line across them is the split.
I can't be absolutely sure of the arrangement but the rudder power control is by a Boulton Paul duplicated electric/hydraulic pack and each of the 8 wing control panels has it's own power control jack. I speculate that this may be a backup provision on independant hydraulic circuits. Photos only ever seem to show the pairs of panels operating as single surfaces.
