The Throttle

→Needle mixing function is used to control the engine’s mixture using a 5-

point curve relative to throttle stick movement . The engine must be equipped with a
mixture control system, such as needle control or some other mixture adjustment, and the
needle servo must be plugged into CH8. The CH8 knob may be used for High-side mixture
adjustment when the idle-up (IDLE) function is ON.

You can have independent control of throttle

→needle mixing in both the Normal

(NORM) and idle-up (IDLE) conditions. The TH

→NDL function includes an ‘acceleration’

function that precedes rapid throttle opening and provides the engine with the best mixture.
