Status: offline 		I have a new Composite-ARF Extra 2,6 m and I think the 10% dif. between up- and downthrows ( on the aileron) that the instruction says can´t be right.
My Extra is not rolling nice when I use these throws. Has anyone got it dead on right???

Status: offline 		Thanx John. Yes I have more down throw than up, but the vertical rolls look like crap. Of course I can try different amount of % but I use Hitec programmable servos and I already have max ATV on my radio so I have to reprogram my servos. I would be extremely happy if anyone had a number that seems to work so I only would have to programme she servos one more time. YES I´m LAZY

Status: offline 		Zeb.. I had mine set at 10%.. Then I tried 11% and 12%. I went back to 10% for the most axial roll and it worked best there. Are you setting your end points on the high or low rate?

Status: offline 		Zeb.. I'm not sure what to tell you. By the way you've described your setup, it should be correct and negative 10% is the magic number. Or at least is was with the 2.6's I've flown.

Status: offline 		John, if you are still there, did you ever try with same down and up throw? Or at least a smaller difference than 10%?

Status: offline 		Nope.. Started with 10% and then adjusted just for the fun of it to see what it would do. Rolls were ALWAYS better at the negative 10% setting.

Status: offline 		Thanks for your help John. I have to check again that I have my 10%. That must work if you say so. Thanks again!
