The throw i dont know, will check and look into that.
Set the collective so the blades are 0 and put a pitch gauge on.
Put the blades out straight fore/aft and give full aileron and measure the pitch in both directions.
Turn the blades 90 degrees to the boom (flybar should be aligned with the center of the boom) and measure the elevator throw both ways.
Report back.
Yes, black paddles are slower and more stable than white or green ones.
