Throttle delay function
THR-DELAY
(
ACRO
):
The
THR-DELAY
function is used to slow the response of the throttle servo to
simulate the slow response of a turbine engine. A
40%
delay setting corresponds
to about a one-second delay, while a
100%
delay takes about eight seconds to
respond. For helicopters, see
DELAYS
, p. 103.
This function may also be used to create a “slowed servo” on a channel other than throttle. This is accomplished by
plugging the desired servo (Ex: gear doors) into CH3 (
THR
), throttle into an auxiliary channel such as 8, and then using
