I think understand the question and it's a legitimate question that can only be answered by measuring....unfortunately my plane isn't finished and it's not stock. The way I understand the question is what is the travel at the stick required to hit the maximum travel of the ailerons...not the maximimum travel at the stick...the two things should be different.
