Control Throws

The amount of control throw should be adjusted as closely

as possible using mechanical means, rather than making

large changes electronically at the radio. By moving the

position of the clevis at the control horn toward the outermost

hole, you will decrease the amount of control throw of the

control surface. Moving it toward the control surface will

increase the amount of throw. Moving the pushrod wire

at the servo arm will have the opposite effect: Moving it

closer to center will decrease throw, and away from center

will increase throw. Work with a combination of the two

to achieve the closest or exact control throws listed.
