1. Turn on the transmitter and receiver of your
Cessna 182. 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:
1/4" (6mm) Up/Down
Elevator:
5/8" (16mm) Up/Down
Rudder:
1/2" (12mm) Right/Left
These are general guidelines measured from our own flight
tests. You can experiment with higher rates to match your
preferred style of flying.
