Default RE: Telemaster .40

Bob, I just completed building the 40 size telemaster and added flaps. The plans show the CG at 4 3/8" from the leading edge at the root airfoil. The flaps should be set to a maximum 30 degrees and if you use a 5 channel radio , channel 5 for the flaps set to 20 degrees for the one position switch.

I wrote to Hobby Lobby on the throws 2 weeks ago with no response to date. No where on the plans or instructions do they suggest the control throws.

I have not flown the model yet but I set my controls as follows:

Rudder +- 1.0 inch
Elevator +- .5 inch
Ailerons +- .75 inch

I have received the throws from Hobby-Lobby yesterday 10/21/2011 as follows:
high low
Elevator 15 mm (9/16") 10mm (3/8")
Aileron 20mm (3/4") 10mm (3/8")
Rudder 20mm (3/4") 10mm (3/8")

I hope that this helps.
