If you think of differential in terms of a ratio, yours is a bit less
than 2:1, my DG202 is 2:1.
In my days of F3B model flying, I used up to 4:1 for thermalling, and
still got adverse yaw, reqiring rudder mixed in.

You were obviously involved with another part of the model world than I
was. Flew C/L when I was a kid and then moved in to single channel RC. I
gave up RC just about the time that proportional radios appeared because
I'd got involved with competitive Free Flight, mostly F1A gliders and
1/2A / F1J power.
