Amount of travel on steering a o/b tunnel hull ?

Hi all out of curiosity on average how much steering travel should a lower unit have on a o/b tunnel hull ? would 40 degrees's be to much ? Regards Andris Golts.

40 degrees should be sufficient, maybe more than sufficient for most tunnel boats. I suppose it all depends on how tight you want to make the turns.

I just checked the rudder throw on my 3.5 tunnel. Probably something like 30 - 35 degrees of deflection both ways.

If possible with your tx, slow the servo speed down also. Believe I've got most of mine set around 30% with 40% return.
