but when its on the v side its all the same in both directions.
If you have equal throw, but your endpoints are different, half stick in both directions is the same amount. Just because your endpoints don't match doesn't mean its unequal.

Jared, Looking good! Glad you like the MX2!

Thanks guys! I REALLY love this plane! The aileron response is unbelievable! I put a straight servo arm on my aileron servo to test the differential in it's stock form, and it is quite noticable. I will be changing the arm tonight

Are you going back to the Radical R/C arm for the ailerons?

Thank you! I don't use much expo on my rudder, so very little rudder is required at all for rollers.
I have been making my own servo arms with offset, but I would like
to try the radical rc arm, looks alot
better than my home made version! Hehe

It's a few places in here, but we run the Mamo Modes VPP system.
