Is the range of a servo defined from -1 to 1? I.e. can a servo be defined to have a range of 0 - 100%? If it can, I'd be tempted to remove the [-100%, 100%].
I ask because a while a rudder (say) moves about a neutral centre position, a flap moves from a neutral position to full extension. Now I think that for flaps the movement is always 0 - 1 but you can set zero to be half way across the servo PWM output range or at the lowest value.
That's all a bit confusing - I guess I'm saying, is it the time for moving neutral to full for a rudder?
Also, as above range [-1,1] is consistent with other docs.

From the actuator doc example "They also have a slew rate of 0.5/s, meaning that it will take 2s to fully deflect them (a slew rate on the flaps is generally recommended to reduce the disturbances their movement creates)."
So I think this is from 0 to 1.

I actually don't know and would need to check in code. Likely @sfuhrer knows by heart and in case it's not super clear certainly how it should be.

Solved Problem
When resolving my oversight here #23835 (comment) I took over the parameter description I came up with.
