Default RE: Lazy Bee control throws

Ok.....I like to use dual rates on my Bees. For the low rates....rudder = 3/4" each way, elevator the same. High rates.....rudder from 1 1/4" to the max....depending on how you like to stunt fly and the elevator the same. I also like to use some expo to soften the conrols a little.

Oh.....I just notice the "Special" in Lazy Bee Special....sorry! That has ailerons like the Speedy Bee. Low rate throws for the ailerons= 1" each way and for high rates=2" each way. Yes....I know it seems like a lot of travel....but that particular airfoil produces a lot of lift but also a lot of turbulence on the trailing edge. So....you need a lot of aileron to get a response. Hope that makes some sense to you.

Check out my page and contact me if you need more help.
