Servo geometry ?
I am doing the final setup of my control surfaces and I have a question
about the servo linkage geometry...
I will use the elevator as an example:
With the servo arm set to 1.25" from the center of the servo,
and the elevator linkage set to 1.25" from the hinge line to
the linkage point (a 1 to 1 ratio) I have to adjust my radio
as follows....
High rate 88% Low rate 25% - It seems to me that I am loosing
a lot of servo resolution doing it this way.
Now if I set the servo arm to 1.15" to maintain a 1 to 1 ration I
need to move the elevatro arm in aslo to 1.15". It helps a little,
High rate now at 94% and low rate around 30%.
Am I mistaken that I should be trying to keep a 1 to 1 ratio on the
servo arm and elevator linkage?
What rates are you guys getting?
I would think this would be ever worse with the 1.5" arms some of you
are using?
Thanks for the help
