The.amount.of.control.throw.should.be.adjusted.as.closely.
as.possible.using.mechanical.means,.rather.than.making.
large.changes.electronically.at.the.radio..By.moving.
the.position.of.the.clevis.at.the.control.horn.toward.the.
outermost.hole,.you.will.decrease.the.amount.of.control.
throw.of.the.control.surface..Moving.it.toward.the.control.
surface.will.increase.the.amount.of.throw..Moving.the.
pushrod.wire.at.the.servo.arm.will.have.the.opposite.
effect:.Moving.it.closer.to.center.will.decrease.throw,.
and.away.from.center.will.increase.throw..Work.with.a.
combination.of.the.two.to.achieve.the.closest.or.exact.
control.throws.listed.

Once.the.control.throws.have.been.set,.slide.the.clevis.
retainers.over.the.clevis.to.prevent.them.from.opening.
during.flight.
An.important.part.of.preparing.the.aircraft.for.flight.is.
properly.balancing.the.model..This.is.especially.important.
when.various.engines.are.mounted.
