My advice and it seems to help keep a more linear feel is to try and adjust the linkage so that it is 1-1 but also adjusting the linkage so that the ATV is no less than 90% 100% is preferable and 110% is the max. That is with no sub trim and throttle trim completely shut when setting it up. Seems to work for me also noticed that trim is usually set to half to get engine started.
