Back in my reply (post#8) I wrote "The radius of the flycutter tool tip is much greater and so will show the "out of tram" condition much clearer."
I don't know why I wrote it that way, it sounds like I was talking about the radius of the tip of the cutting tool in the flycutter.
What I meant was the diameter of the cut the flycutter sweep or path is much greater than that of the endmill.

I don't know what size the endmill you used was but I'm thinking if the endmill was 1/2" and the diameter (cut circle) of the flycutter was 2"  any "out of tram" condition will show up much more with the fly cutter.
Is that any clearer?

Yes, but your original post was clear also. At least I interpreted it as you just explained above and it made sense.
