Flamenco Guitar Techniques - Arpeggio
A technique flamenco shares with classical guitar. Arpeggio basically is the breaking a chord into its components by playing it's notes in succession - one after the other. Different from picado, arpeggio notes are played with "free strokes." This means the finger does NOT rest on the next string after making the sound.
My suggestion, again, for a good and even arpeggio is to slowly practise it with the metronome. Very similar to tremolo, you need to be looking for a balance in-between your fingers and not a speed burst.

Arpeggio is a technique that really brings forward the unique character of guitar as an instrument, and there are countless combinations in which it can be utilized to express emotions and musical concepts. Mario Escudero's Impetu is a good example for that:
