Default Control throw calculation

I'd like to bounce this off some of you...
If the cord of my aileron is 3.5 inches from hinge point to trailing edge.
And if my control horn is 1" tall from the hinge to take off point.
And if I want 15 degree deflection in each direction (I believe this to be 3/4").
Would the pushrod stroke required from the servo be a little less than 1/4" in each direction?
Thanks!
