Default RE: throws

To add to what MinnFlyer said - when you look at the torque rods for the ailerons they should look like they are angled forward with the ailerons in their neutral position. This geometry will allow for more up movement in the ailerons than down (low wing planes should have the torque rods angled backwards for the same effect) to provide for the aileron differential. Set you ailerons up so you get the recommended up throw and don't worry about the down throw. After you fly the plane then make adjustments to the throws as necessary for your own individual plane. This is the way I always did it in the days when we didn't have computer radios, servo reverse, etc.
