Hello fellow flyers! Darn glad to be here! I need some help please. I have been sucessfully flying a Wingo (not without a few crashes) and now have a Tower 40 trainer with a OS FS 52 motor and a JR 8103, eight channel radio (wanted one that I could grow with). I have put two aileron servos in the wing so I could try out flaperons later, but my problem is that the instructions say to set up differential rates using the servo control horns, but with this radio I can set it in the computer, but the instructions didn't give me a number setting. Any ideas on what the best differential rate setting for an aileron beginner would be? Thanks!

I usually fly a plane then trim as needed unless the plane spec. something different,differential will help the turns and rolls,30% is a good starting point,use a chart on how to trim,should be one with the radio.
