Need some help with my Raptor 90Std.
I am running +/- 11 degrees pitch and I feel that is enough. Elevator is also OK.
I manage almost 8degrees on elevator pitch, men since aileron maxes out on 7 I do the same on elevator.
But even if the cyclic pitch are the same, I feel that elevator has much more "punch" than aileron.
I really notice this during 4-points tictoc. Elevator is great, but aileron feels slow in comparison.

I let one of the best pilot in our club test it today to check that is not something to do with my fingers.
But he felt the same. Elevator was fine, but aileron was much slower

What can I do to liven up the cyclic on aileron?
I feel that my Raptor 50 has more response and that is strange (only on aileron)!

Here is my setup:
s9255 * 3
Gy611/s9256
Radix 690mm blades
RevMax
TT metal hub, mixer arms and Metal "bird cage" on head.
Infinavation dampeners
v-blades paddles 95mm

Try bigger paddles. What paddles does the other pilot use?

I use 105 v's. Really fast with v 690's. I haven't got 4 point tictocs down at all though.

Thought about that. But the strange thing is elavator works fine!?
Do you use std. TT head, and if so do you know how much cyclic pitch have you got?

move the bell mixers too the inner hole and re pitch the head for 11*-/+ the a set of red TT paddles or any kind that are 110 and light like 20 grams the red one we take off the end to ligthen them up, make sure you are at 10.5 mm on the aler servo horn Max's out your throw so there is no binding should have about 7* one other thing is the farther you put the paddles out on the fly bar will make things happen faster but you then may get a little pitchy in FFF i screw my tt ones in till they stop hope that helps
