Section 15: Checking The Control Throw Amounts - Hangar 9 P-51 PTS Mustang Mk II Assembly Manual

LEFT RUDDER
Move the rudder control stick to the left, this will make the
plane turn left. The rudder should deflect to the left as well.
If not, check the radio instructions on how to reverse the
direction electronically at the transmitter.

Section 15:
Checking the Control Throw Amounts
The Dual Rate switch allows for aileron, elevator and rudder
rates. When the Dual Rate switch is in the upper position,
channel. When the switch is in the lower position, a reduced
amount of travel is achieved on the aileron, elevator or
rudder channel. This is useful allowing the aircraft to have a
high control rate (switch in the "HI" position) for aggressive
maneuvers and a low control rate (switch in "LO" position)
for smooth, precise maneuvers. The switches are labeled to
their particular function.
High Rate
Low Rate
After checking that the controls are moving in the correct
directions, the amount of the control movement must be
checked. By moving the control stick of each surface to its
full deflection, you will measure the amount the surface
has moved. By holding a ruler next to the surface and
establishing a reference, use the radio to make the surface
move and compare the measurements to those shown.
AILERON HIGH RATE
