I didn't really measure it since those jets doesn't really need too much throw on it so it's not significant.

ok I just opened a new unit and here's my setup.

I select acro and reset everything to 0 and turned off all 3 mixes. I put null on all 4 switches at the bottom.

I set a straight arm so that I get flat line relative to horizon. I connect the servo to ch 2 then set the end points left to 120 and right to 100. I compared and measured the endpoints. I'm getting more degree of travel on the 120 and a little less travel on the 100. I don't have a tool to precisely measure the correct degree. Base on eye balling it sure did pass 45 degree, which is 1/2 of a right angle.

Let me know

After getting much conflicting info elaswhere.
  { 3 LHS's gave conflicting answers.  One did offer to physically check out my tx. }
I found a service manual for the JR PRO XP6102,  RC Transmitter.
  Page 67   states that "150% servo travel is +/-60 degrees."
  Therefore 100%. or normal range would be +/-40 degrees.
Also "HYPERION"  states that nornal servo travel for their ATLAS servo is +/-45 degrees. 

This jives with your last post,  physical check of your tx,  about +/-45 degrees.

SO   I've spent a week with Your company, trying to resolve this problem just to find out that this is normal operation.

Different radios output different resolutions and servo throws. Naturally the more money you spend, the more resolution and throw you get. When you compare JR (the best radio money can buy) servo travel compared to the Exceed radio, it's like comparing hamburger to fillet minon. It is the output of your receiver that gives the endpoints for where the servo will end up. There are products to resolve this called servo stretchers for people requiring large throws and also longer servo horns to generate longer throws. I have used the stretchers and to be honest, it really gets to be touchy on the stick because it is like negative exponential. Makes the model very "jumpy" and not fun or easy to control. $200 radio compared to a $50 radio

I didn't want to say anything but felt i should mention what i know cause wasn't sure Andy knew much about JR since he doesn't sell it.

Thanks for the input!

Joe, If the exceed radio doesn't fit your RC needs, you can always send it back for credit or refund Smiley
