THROTTLE CUT

Allows the throttle channel’s output to be quickly moved to a user-defi ned position by

fl ipping a switch. This is to reduce engine / motor power for safety reasons.

When setting up the model mechanically, make sure the carburetor is at full-open when

the throttle stick is at full position. Use the trim to adjust the engine idle position. Move
the throttle stick to idle position and turn the assigned throttle hold switch on and off
repeatedly while changing the offset value until the servo stops moving.

Select a switch to control the throttle cut function on the CTRL

line. Press ESC.

The throttle cut function will only work

when the throttle stick position is

below the trig point. To set this point,

move the cursor next to TRIG but do not press ENTER. Move the throttle stick to the
desired position that will trigger the throttle channel to move to the cutoff position. The
graph will move accordingly as will the percent shown on the THRO line at bottom. Press
ENTER. The arrow on the left will now move and mark this selected trigger position.

Move the cursor to the CUT percentage, press ENTER and
adjust this cutoff value by pressing

and

to the desired

position for the throttle channel’s output to move to when the
throttle cut function is activated. This position will be marked
by the arrow on the right. Press ENTER to confi rm this mark.

When the throttle cut switch is in the ON position and the

throttle stick is positioned above the trigger mark, reducing
the throttle stick to the trigger mark will automatically drop
the throttle channel to the throttle cutoff mark. The throttle
channel will remain in this position. To regain full control of the throttle channel, move
the control switch to the OFF position.

THROTTLE HOLD

Throttle hold allows full use of collective pitch while setting

the throttle at a user pre-determined position. This function
is often used for autorotation. The pilot can then release the
hold and regain full control of the throttle as needed.

The “CTRL” line is for setting the ability to turn this function

ON/OFF with a switch. Selecting “INH” inhibits this function from operating.
