Default Phoneix Models Scanner - Surface Throws

Hi All,
Could people who are currently flying the P.M. Scanner tell me what they are using for the surface throws as I cannot find my manual[:'(]

Hi John,

I'm pretty sure I have a Scanner manual at home, problem is that I am working away and won't be going back for about 10 days.

Some time since I had a Scanner, however I don't recall it being too finicky. If no-one comes up with a manual try about 3/8" on elevator and ailerons and work up from there. 1/2 - 3/4 should be a good start point for rudder.

Muza ... I use a lot of throw on mine ... the CG is at 3"-3.25" (very sensitive at 3.25"), if you are using a TT46 or OS46 then just set the engine to the back of the engine mount and it will be just right.

As for throws, rudder is on max, almost touching the elevator. Elevator about 3/4"-1", ailerons 3/4". I like my planes twitchy so that they can tumble fast on low speeds.

Standard is usually Ele - 1/2"-3/4"; Ail - 1/4"-1/2"; rudder - 1"
