[NSRCA-discussion] Rudder pull-pull

[Mark Atwood]

Better. But let¹s not get gaudy about it...lol

The reality is the throw is just more linear.  With an arm, even though the
attachment point of the cable to the arm still moves in a circular fashion
(same as the wheel), the cable is not following the arc.  So the angle of
the cable is changing, and the relative throw is decreasing as the arm is
deflecting.

Can you tell???  Well, it¹s effectively giving you opposite expo (the arm
is).   Meaning the throw is more sensitive around neutral.    When we used
Analog servos...this was actually a good thing.  The amount of blow back on
our barn door rudders made the first bit of movement somewhat ineffective.
But now with the digital servos which operate at full torque even near
center, my guess is that people running an arm MIGHT...just MIGHT use
slightly more expo on their rudder to offset the mechanical negative expo.
That¹s if they really notice it.

I just go for the bling. :)
