Hi OK465,
Rarely do you see full control surface deflections for full SS inputs. And of course, day to day, actual flying you will probably never see full SS input. Which is a good thing.
I think it would be a good idea to know how much control surface defection is being applied - especially when the flight computers decide to only give me half - A320__Hamburg-Cross wind landing.pdf page 46
"During the next few seconds the aircraft rolled to a 23° left wing down attitude in spite of the full right deflection of both sidesticks and application of right rudder. The switch to Ground Law limited the effect of roll control corrections. The left main landing gear again made contact with the runway. At about the same instant, the left wingtip made contact with the runway."
