Control Throws
 1. Turn on the transmitter and receiver of your
F-16. 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. Check the movement of the ailerons with the
radio system. Moving the aileron stick right will
make the right aileron move up and the left aileron
move down.
 4. 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.
Aileron High Rate
Up 1-inch (25mm)
Down 7/8-inch (22mm)
Aileron Low Rate
Up 3/4-inch (19mm)
Down 5/8-inch (16mm)
Elevator High Rate
Up 3/8-inch (10mm)
Down 3/8-inch (10mm)
Elevator Low Rate
Up 1/4-inch (7mm)
Down 1/4-inch (7mm)
Note: Measurements are taken at the inner or
widest point on the control surface.
Nose Wheel Steering (High Rate or Taxi)
Left 7/16-inch (12mm)
Right 7/16-inch (12mm)
Nose Wheel Steering (Low Rate or Takeoff)
Left 1/4-inch (7mm)
Right 1/4-inch (7mm)
Note: Steering measurement is taken at the end
of the Aluminum Steering Arm over the steering
servo arm.
These are general guidelines measured from our own
flight tests. You can experiment with higher rates to
match your preferred style of flying.
