I am more worried the rudder or elevator ripping off the plane in mid flight. I am going out tommorow and I will see what happens.
... also, more throw doesn't necessarily mean more control surface effect. It might mean the opposite if, for instance, the elevator moves so much that all it does is create more turbulence around the tail.
... also (sorry!)
this is unlikely to happen with a trainer, but excessive elevator movement can make the model snap. That is, roll over on its back when move the elevator quickly and you least expect it!
