Hello everyone,
I'm building an Extra 2x2, and on the left wing I can get a maximum aileron down throw of less than 45mm instead of the recommended high rates of 50mm. (I can get up to 65mm on the right wing.) I spoke with a Comp-ARF rep, and they told me that this would be more than enough throw.
What is your experience? How much aileron down-throw do you use for 3D rates?
Thanks,
Marc
Hi Marc
Look at my post #205, I have cut out part of the 'TE' to allow the aileron to travel 'down' further, I get 55m down, could go a bit more, but will start to stall the servo.
Good flying
Tony
Hi Tony,
The problem with my wing is that I can't get more than 45mm, because the rear spar is too far back. I already sanded the edge of the aileron. If I sand of more, I will get a huge gap, so this is not an option. I told the Comp-ARF rep, but they don't want to replace the faulty wing, because the throw would be "more than enough". So I simply wonder what the experience of other 2x2 owners is.
Thanks,
Marc
