Hi Everyone!
I posted this on Team-Raptor also but that board is a bit slow compared to The Freak....
I have a hopefully easy question....
On my Titan I am having to use uneven (100% fore, 85% aft) on the elevator ATV (Futaba 9C, 9251 servo) to get the same throw fore and aft. The swash is level at zero stick but if I use equal ATVs I get uneven elevator throw. FYI I'm shooting for 7 degrees. No binding in the linkage and everything seems mechanically correct. Anybody else experiencing this?
Thanks!

If you center it up right the atv's should be equal.

http://www.raptortechnique.com has a page dedicated to setting that up correctly.

I love that site!
That's basically how I set mine up except I made the "Front" links work then set-up the "Back" link. I'll go back on try it Mr. Prewitt's way and see if that changes anything.
Thanks for the tip!
