Default RE: Linkage setup

I think the Hitec programmer is confusing the situation
on my end...

Elevator setup...

I have moved the linkage on my SWB 1-1/4" arm to the
closest hole to the center - .8" out. My pivot point on the
elevator horn is 1.75" out from the hing line.

ATV at 140
Max servo rotaion around 75 to 80 degree's when programmed.
High rate at 140% = 25 degree of throw.
Low rate at around 60% = 15 degree of throw with about 40
degree's of servo rotation.

The low rate % is only 10% hight then I started, while the
high rate throw has bee reduced by 20 degrees?

It seems like since the Hitec programer is alowing the servo to
rotate more then 60 degree's I am having to reduce the D/R
more to lower the throw since the servo arm is moving the
surface less at or near the end points.

How do I work this out? Is the programmer actually increasing
resolution since the servo is able to rotate more?
