If you have to move the stick 30% more for the same pitch action, you've reduced the sensitivity to the pilot I would think. For example, in my avid with its Junkers style flaperons, there was a lot of adverse yaw. So I had to lead with the rudder a lot on turns. They offered a kit to differentiate the ailerons, the one going down moved half as far as the one going up. This change reduced the adverse yaw *and* the roll sensitivity at the stick. Same aircraft aerodynamic design. I think my KR1 stick will have the cable attach closer together, or if I use a push-pull tube for the elevator, move it closer to the fulcrum and have multiple attach points between stock movement and 15% and 30% less (three holes).
