RE: Gremlin help
Maybe there are two threads???
"I still have four of my Gremlins. (Sheeting the wings just adds weight. Flexible is better. In fact covering them was not an original plan.)
However, that was for plain bearing 25's so have at it.
The throws are best set at max of 3/8" up and down for the elevator. Then 1/2" up and down for ailerons. The sensitivity will depend upon the CG. Set it at 1.7" from the LE and it will fly like it is on rails.
Rearward CG's and/or too much elevator throw can and will allow a spin if elevator is slammmed in. Low throttle and 1/2 down elevator will get you out of it, maybe!
Regards,
Eric.

One other tip - Insulate your tank from the fuselage - it will prevent fuel frothing and bad engine runs that were common until we cracked the code!

Can someone tell me what the throws should be?
