<Model Basic Setting Procedure>

4. Throttle cut setting

Throttle cut can be performed with one touch by a

switch without changing the throttle trim position.

Set throttle cut with the Throttle Cut function of

the Linkage Menu. After activating the throttle cut
function and selecting the switch, adjust the throttle
position so that the carburetor becomes full open. For
safety, the throttle cut function operates the throttle
stick in the 1/3 or less (slow side) position.

5. Idle down setting

The idling speed can be lowered with one touch by

a switch without changing the throttle trim position.
Perform this setting with the Idle Down function of the
Linkage Menu. After activating the Idle Down function
and selecting the switch, adjust the idle down speed.
For safety, the idle down function acts only when the
throttle stick is in the 1/3 or less (slow side) position.

*While the Throttle Cut function is in operation, the Idle

Down function does not work.

6. AFR (D/R)

AFR function is used to adjust the throw and

operation curve of the stick, lever, and switch functions
&+WR&+DQG9WR9 IRUHDFKÀLJKWFRQGLWLRQ
This is normally used after End Point (ATV) has
defined the maximum throw directions (End Point
acts on ALL flight condition settings). When mixing
is applied from one channel to another channel, both
channels can be adjusted at the same time by adjusting
the operation rate through the AFR function.

7. Airbrake

This function is used when an air brake is necessary

when taking off or diving, etc.

and remains on until other conditions are activated by switches.
