Default RE: Is buzzing called servo binding?

OK guys!!

its a plain-jane Futaba s3004 BB servo.

My instruction manual says (for ailerons 3/8 of an inch of throw on high rates. The servo is moving the surface (measured with a straight ruler) when it buzzes at about 7/8 of an inch) When I tried decreasing throw (again measured with a straight ruler) it was at about 4/10 of an inch w/o buzzing.) Also will buzzing just empty the batt pack real soon?

my last major concern : Will the plane do good aerobatics with about 4/10 of an inch of aileron throw when at high rates it is supposed to be at 3/8 of an inch?? (I mean once I progress, will 4/10 of an inch be enough aerobaticism for me??)

Also while im training i can put it on teh lowest rates possible courtesy of the handy dandy D/R switch

And : DB- if my findings are kinda problematic, I could try talking my dad to take me to the field this SunDay (No chinese School!! Yay!!!)

I dunno if he will say yes though.
