I thought I would pass this information along.

I asked Horizon Hobby about specs for the tail movement, as none are listed in the manual or on line for the AeroScout. Note that the entire horizontal stabilizer acts as the elevator, not just a tab off of the stab. The elevator moves very little, probably less than 1/4". Here is their reply

...there is not a specification for the elevators we list for travels. However by design the elevator will move less for the aircraft as it is the design of safe. This is a trainer aircraft. If you do not like the travels you can update the receiver to unlock it and thenuse a forward programable transmitter and put in a custom program that has more travels. Your supplimental information is correct about the servo. THe servo will move when off 180 degrees, when using a test rig the…

I learned a lot from those few crashes and will be out to the field next weekend to crash some more.

The TX16S was bought somewhat on a whim, but after some research and talking to one of the club members. There's no real manual for this thing and no written instructions on line, but there is a lot of videos. So far, I've learned to bind it with three different receivers, implement some low/medium/high rates, implement arming switch (on motorcycle…
