Is there a procedure for testing a servo on an elevator? It doesn't seem to have full range of motion.
If the servo is limiting travel, something is wrong with either application or design. Basically true for the vast majority of other actuating mechanisms: prop gov, throttle body, carb, carb heat, whatever. If what you've stated is acceptable to the aircraft OEM, it's a huge surprise.I don't know how the travel limits work out for other variants however I recall learning that the elevator servos do not provide the total +/- limits on the RV-6.
TrimTrim servo or autopilot servo?
