I think the original question was dealing with converting suggested throws stated in one form to a form you can measure with the equipment you have. It was a pretty straight forward question, and as usual it was answered well in the first couple of posts.
Sheesh!
Who, in these times, does'nt have a mm measuring device? Last time I looked, both metric and standard are on any ruler. So why convert to degrees? Just set a ruller down on the surface your airplane is on. Take a note of where nutral is, move your control surface up or down, adjust to the said amount of throw. How complicated is that? LOL
Why make it more complicated than what it is? Unless, your an engineer and cant understand simple terms hehe.
