Generally... it is BEST to mechanicly adjust the linkages so that correct throw is achieved with 100% throw on the computer radio's ATV. There are potential problems with some older servos and going beyond 120%. You don't want to get into those problems. (can destroy the servo position sensing pot)

The servos are DESIGNED for a given throw angle. If you need more throw... you reall need to fix the linkages.

If you set yournormal throw rate below 80% you should change the linkage as you are not getting full servo power. (the mechanical linkage being adjusted will increase torque at the control horn and make the response crisper. also a good defense against alloing fluttter because of the increased servo authority over the surface.)

Computer radios with the ATV ranges they have now are teaching some bad habits. "Good engineering practice" is to make the setting as close to 100% as possible.
