Control surface throws

I highly recommend that you purchase a throw meter that measures in degrees. There are several units

available commercially. These units are a great aid in set-up and definitely beat the “that looks about

right” method. For any type of precision flying, surfaces that travel equal distances are a must. The

following control surface travels are what I use on my own Edge. These are a good starting point, but are

by no means the only way to set up the Edge. Start here and then adjust to fit your own preferences and

style of flying.

Elevator: 10-12 degrees low rate, 18-20% exponential

all you can get for high rate, 50-60% exponential

Aileron: 18-20 degrees low rate, 30-40% exponential

all you can get for high rate, 50-60% exponential

Rudder: 20 degrees low rate, 50% exponential

all you can get for high rate, 60-70% exponential.

Again, this is just a starting point. Adjust to your liking.

Thanks again for your purchase of the Extreme Flight RC 85" Edge 540T

ARF. I hope you enjoy assembling and flying yours as much as I have mine.

See you at the flying field!
