4. Make certain that the control surfaces and the throttle
respond in the correct direction as shown in the diagram. If any
of the controls respond in the wrong direction, use the servo
reversing in the transmitter to reverse the servos connected to
those controls. Be certain the control surfaces have remained
centered. Adjust if necessary.
Set the Control Throws
Use a Great Planes AccuThrow (or a ruler) to accurately
measure and set the control throw of each control surface
as indicated in the chart that follows. If your radio does not
have dual rates, we recommend setting the throws at the
low
rate setting.
NOTE : The throws are measured at the widest part of the
elevators, rudder and ailerons.
These are the recommended control surface throws:

IMPORTANT: The Super Sportster EPO has been
extensively fl own and tested to arrive at the throws at
which it fl ies best. Flying your model at these throws will
provide you with the greatest chance for successful fi rst
fl ights. If, after you have become accustomed to the way
the Super Sportster EPO fl ies, you would like to change
the throws to suit your taste, that is fi ne. However, too much
control throw could make the model diffi cult to control, so
remember, “more is not always better.”
