RE: Comp Bobcat aileron throws
Joel,
The "up"aileron end point adjustment should be 3/4" measured at the outboard end of the aileron relative to the wing tip. This dimension is found on the BVM website within the PDF file instructions for setting up the "Crow" feature for the ailerons and flaps.
I recommend the "Crow" setup heartily...I am using it on my KingCat, and have found it to be a helpful feature in the landing pattern.
If you choose dual rates instead of "Crow", use the 3/4" dimension as a starting point for high rate. Recommended throws are always a safe starting point.

RE: Comp Bobcat aileron throws
just to clarify, crow has nothing to do with low or hight rates .... crow lessens lift on the wing for a more predictable landing, preventing the plane from "floating on" or bouncing (on a bad landing ) on landing. On full rates it feels jutst fine with 10-15 % negative expo ... i never used dual rates on mine, but i would say if you want low rates to smooth flying at higher speeds, set to like 78 - 80% of the full setting ..

lol, im just used to it being always "negative" from my Fu**** radio ... I do in fact use a 10x for my jets however ( well, most ) 
... to clarify, i was refering to the expo that softens out response around center stick
