I am using this mainly to adjust my servo centers (6965) in my helicopter so I do not have to use the sub trims in my TX for endpoint adjustment. But since you have to adjust your end points after the center adjustment my question is how to do it since I am not able to get any protractors or such on them?

I thought that since the range of adjustment is from -/+ 225 that I could just shift my settings to the left or right by the amount that I ended up off of zero for my center. (make sense?) If my center point ended up being +5 and I wanted 100 points of throw than I would just set in -95 and +105 and I would have the same amount of throw left and right of center but this does not seem to work. (not sure why)

So I pretty much just eyeballed about 72deg of throw left and right and set my endpoints there. I guess my REAL question is in doing this each servos endpoints are a bit different than the others. Will this cause each servo to move differently (inside of the set range of travel)?

Thanks for any help,

Thomas

Basically the numbers don't mean anything... it's the end result you are looking for. Use whatever numbers you need to acheive that. There are some good programming videos here: http://www.downonthedeck.com/videos_instruction.htm
