Default Increasing throws?

new2this,

Before you start going ballistic with the control throws, consider this... The designers give recommended throws for a reason. A trainer such as yours is only going to perform to a certain degree. If you go wild with the throws (esp the elevator), landing can really become a handful. Remember, the more throw you have, the more sensitive the controls will be (make sense?). A trainer with a very high lift wing will balloon easily during your approach and flair if you feed in just a tad too much elevator. More is not better in some cases.

For what it's worth...
