The manual for the model (possibly the Tower site ) SHOULD provide the "suggested" throws for low and high rates. Go with these settings, and if you want more throw, increase it gradually until it starts to torque/snap, then back off a little.

If you have split elevators, make sure that they are both moving the same amount in both directions. I had this problem with a G-202 and it fixed it.
