I am getting 60deg of throw , with the 1.5 arms with my Savox ....no problem , no need to program

I haven't figured that out yet. I can't give up my 55 degrees throw ether. The trick is to use the least amount of center trim so the end points don't get short. Worst case scenario ? ...I might have to make my own arms with uni-hubs. First I will try to avoid that tho.

They are jittering bad and get worse it seems every time out to the field... Gotta check to see if they are still under warranty. I think they are. Then off to hitec and then to the classifieds.

People have started to ask me if I'm actually going to fly with the ailerons doing that...

I've never needed more than 45 on the ailerons and 45-50 on the elevator. I don't have 180 degrees of throw with the hitecs. I have the normal sweep.

Got the 1268's yesterday. On the outside they look quality. I installed them today and set them up on my ailerons. Everything went pretty smooth. Gonna fly them tomorrow. While I was setting up the savox servos I noticed one of my elevator servos is developing a slight jitter and my futaba bls156's on my rudder are acting funky. So hopefully I can hang on till I figure out if I'm going to like these 1268's. I might have to put the 7955's back in on the rudder (f-ck me). THese servos are driving fricking insane.

Put a 2270 on the rudder and be done with it

2270 looks a little weak on 6 volts for using only 1. I use A123. Or maybe it is fine since A123 is more like 6.6V which is probably about 400 ounces.

I need a minimum of 600oz on the rudder...Personal preference. So it will be 2 of the 1286's = 700oz

Four flights today. 81 degrees and a light easterly breeze. No drama, no jitter, just rock solid. Guess we'll see for how long.
