Raising some events from the question components strikes me as being a
whole lot easier than dealing with addressing all the different objects
through the heirarchy!
But then when I first started out with flex I didn't know that and tried
to do pretty well the same sort of thing.
You could probably google and read enough on custom events to do what
you need in an hour or two, you'd more than likely spend much more time
trying to work out your current problems than that, I'd guess.

Subject: Re: [flexcoders] Moving a viewStack through actionscript
Hi Wally, sorry I missed the hierarchy there. You have checkSingle on
the module and not the Viewstack. In that case, you should be able to do
parent.parent.checkSingle and leave out the cast as test1. So
public var testMod:Object = parent.parent;
The last one failed because it was trying to convert a viewstack into a
test1 which of course isn't a viewstack. But I'm not sure about this one
because the parent.parent is a module. You could also forgo using the
testMod variable and in your click declaration instead of
click="testMod.checkSingle(group1.selectedValue)"
use
click="parent.parent.checkSingle(group1.selectedValue)" />
Hopefully that'll work for you.
If you have a little time to invest, and if you may be doing more Flex
apps in the future, even though this one is not going to be a full-on
huge app, I'd learn about dispatching custom events. It's not that
complicated but it takes some time to understand. It would save some of
the hassle you're trying to do of course at the expense of a new and
different kind of hassle. :-)

Wow...its a 'simple' one time create app.
All I want to do is when the user selects an answer on the
question1.mxml component, they can click a button, pass the value of
the radio button to the test1 module's checkSingle() method and then
move to the next question in the test1 module's stack.
