Default full throw on a turngy 9x

ok this is a big thing because i think its whats giving me problems with my excavator valves being weak.

i have a flysky9x(same as the many 9x's) and i have all the servo settings at full e.points 120%. but if i take the servo out and put a servo horn on it i looking like it only trurns about 45-60%. am i missing a function that will make them go full throw? if this is understandable please help! im still running the stock program so please no setting that needs the firmware updates or other firmware. thanks .

Flysky is actually different than the Turnigy 9x in programming as I have both. You are on the right track with the end point adjustment letting it go all the way but the thing you are forgetting is not all servos go the same distance in travel. Some servos can go 180* in rotation as some other cheapo servos may only go 45*-60* each direction.

I have run into this problem before buying some servos that didn't swing the full 180* that I needed and they only went to about a 60* angle each direction.

You may try throwing a different servo on the channel and checking it that way as well.

I use my hitec 55's for my valves and they turn 180* for me on my Turnigy with no problem. I actually have them backed down some in my loader that I am using an Airtronics 8ch on because I don't need them to travel the full 150% that the radio programming will allow.
