I am posting here just to get a few more replies, maybe someone will know the actual throws. The plane in question is a kit, but they're also available ARF, so I figured this fits. Besides it will dwindle out of the first page after a day i'm sure anyway.

thanks for looking.

If you don't get what you need before Monday; get the phone number from www.sigmfg.com and they'll give you all of the info.

Thanks.
I called up tower hobbies today to ask their tech, but they weren't in. Tower gave me the number for SIG. I was just hoping to see what everyone else did. I flew the plane already, and then checked the throws and my ailerons weren't throwing as much as it calls for (or were they?, tower has a weird glitch in that info).

I'm curious what someone may have used as a high rate as well.

I didn't see my 4* manual sitting on the shelf. I'll dig around for it this afternoon and post the throws if I find it.

If you can't find that manual, I'll dig mine out.

I must have accidentally tossed it; I can't find it anywhere.

Its cool man, I appreciate you looking.

Does more aileron than elevator sound right?

From the ARF Manual

Elevators: 1/2" Up -- 1/2" Down
Ailerons: 5/8" Up -- 5/8" Down
Rudder: 1" Left -- 1" Right

Recommended CofG Balance Point is 2-15/16" which is right in the centre of the main spar.

thanks.

Mind I ask you what you use on high rates, if you use anything?

I'm still using the throws as per the manual.

The aileron and elevator are fine at those settings. The rudder could use some more for better knife edge.

I took it up again today with the above throws. It was pretty good.

When I kick the rudder for a knife edge, the nose pitches down wickedly. I'm no good at mixing, so I don't know what I'll do there.


thanks again.

That's a typical Four Star trait and it comes from the horizontal stab being too high. Mine does exactly the same thing.
