It solved the problem. The control forces to roll the LIVP at cruise speeds are more than the standard servo can handle in some circumstances, such as a course changing turn and then commanding a return to straight, which might not be fully possible with the torque of a standard servo (even with adjusting the lever arm of the servo connection rod). The elevator, which is much more responsive, is adequately controlled with my standard servo (that has not been changed). I have TruTrak's Sorcerer.

Which servos do you have installed? I. Thinking I need the higher torque servos on the ailerons at high speed cruise?what settings do you have it at? I'm trying to dial mine in and get rid of the hunting. Sent from my iPad
