misd-agin: Try no aileron in max crosswind.
Not very pleasant. My first lesson in a C-172 taught me the opposite. In addition it contradicts everybody else in here.

And britishairwayS:
I'm talking about X-WIND T/O here. F.ex. rwy 18, W/V 225/33G46. Using "abit of aileron" will flip you over in no time. You need probably 10 units/45 degrees/half deflection on the yoke to have control. During rotation, that is.
