GSA28 hole choice

Which hole on the Garmin auto pilot servo arm do most installs use (shortest to longest bellcrank throw)?
 
G3X manual shows in the longest (position A) hole on the servo lever
pages 12-17 thru 12-37.

Can't remember which brand (Garmin, Dynon, Trig... I've installed them all) one of them stated that ideally the lever swing should be between 90 & 120 degrees. If you use one of the shorter lever length holes, you risk creating a larger arc swing which would be bad.

I use outer hole for pitch and middle hole for roll, that gives the most throw angle for each one without hitting the stops.

I just installed them on our -8, I used the longest throw on both pitch and roll.

Did you have any issues with the mount and the stop bracket on the roll servo?

It looks like I need to cut it or put washers under it.

Thanks
