It's 16-18cm from full down to full up elevator on the couple of C152's I've measured and roughly +-90 degrees of roll axis. BTW, I'm not anal. Honest! I'm just building a yoke of my own so I measured these recently. If you're in the right ball park for these figures IMHO you'll be just fine. As David quite rightly said, it's the feedback from the controls which varies according to many parameters that is by far the hardest thing to simulate. I'm going to use elastic cotton-covered 'bungee' cord to centre and resist on my yoke. Mainly because springs are quite difficult to come by and can be noisy to boot.
