Control Throws

1. Turn on the transmitter and receiver of your Mini

Edge. Check the movement of the rudder using the
transmitter. When the stick is moved right, the rudder
should also move right. Reverse the direction of the
servo at the transmitter if necessary.

2. Check the movement of the elevator with the radio

system. Moving the elevator stick down will make the
airplane elevator move up.

3. Use a ruler to adjust the throw of the elevator, ailerons

and rudder. Adjust the position of the pushrod at the
control horn to achieve the following measurements
when moving the sticks to their endpoints.

Ailerons:

Low rate

3/4" (19mm) Up/Down

High Rate

2" (51mm) Up/Down

Elevator:

preferred style of 3D flying.
