I used a protractor and drew extended lines (on some paper) showing the throws from the book. I made the surface look like my drawing. After a few flights I set them higher. My elevator was about 1 inch. The rudder was elevator to elevator. The ailerons were all I could get with some expo. This set up gave good response without always looking to snap under a load.

Without expo, I'd set the ailerons at about 60% of available throw.
