ADJUSTING THE UP-1 THROTTLE CURVE
NOTE: The UP-1 Throttle curve is preset at the factory. Having said this you can use
the HOV.T/FALP.T dial to adjust the UP-1 throttle curve from 51% to 100% power
while the UP-1 switch is on.
To better explain the throttle curves let’s review the diagrams below. In the fi gure
you can see three throttle curves. The one to the left is a typical throttle curve with
the helicopter operating in normal mode. (The UP-1 switch off) The picture in the
center shows the throttle curve with the transmitters UP-1 switch ON and the HOV.T/
FALP.T dial turned fully counter clockwise. The picture on the right shows the same
condition with the HOV.T/FLAP.T dial turned fully clock wise. (This setting provides
the most power to the motor with the UP-1 switch active.)
