Adjust the deflection of the control surfaces to match the specifications on page 15
You can reduce the amount of throw by doing either or both of the following:
- From the servo end, move the clevis or EZ connector to a hole in the servo arm that is closer to the servo output
shaft.
- From the control horn end, move the horn out further on the threaded bolts. Always confirm that the horn is still
thoroughly engaged with the threaded bolt after you have adjusted it.
Before starting the final
set-up of the model,
switch on the radio and
ensure that all trims are
in their neutral posi-
tions. Check that the
ailerons, elevator and
rudder are centered. If
any adjustments are
needed, do these by
uncoupling the relevant
clevis and turning it
clockwise to shorten
the linkage or counter -
clockwise to lengthen it.
Only when each control
surface has been cen-
tered mechanically in
this way should you
begin adjusting the sur-
face movement (or
throw)
Now confirm
that the con-
trol surfaces
are moving
in the correct
d i r e c t i o n .
Use the
servo revers-
ing switches
on your
transmitter to
reverse the
direction of a
servo if nec-
essary. The
most popular
t r a n s m i t t e r
mode (with
the throttle
on the left,
with ailerons
and elevator
on the right)
is shown
here.
