I've been asked for the control throws for the sukhoi several times, so I thought I'd stick them up on the website. Here is a reply to an email I wrote in February 2001 (about 5 months since the last time I flew): I have not flown in months, I'm taking a break from it and the batteries in my radiogear are totally flat so I can't check the exact movement that I had on the control surfaces. But I had a look at my sukhoi and moved the surfaces to about the amount that I remember them moving and measured them. I think a good place to start would be 12mm each way with the ailerons, and 20 - 25mm each way on the elevator. I think that with the rudder you could probably have it moving about 1/2 to 2/3 of the full amount of travel that it has when it hits the elevator cut outs.
