Gain: the responsiveness or amount of control given the gyro. On a high gain, the gyro is very active and overrides nearly
all other actions. Too high a gain may result in “wagging” at the surface as the gyro over-corrects repeatedly in each
direction. See

Idle management: varying settings and control of the modelis idle. Ex: using
IDLE-DOWN
to lower engine's idle point for
landings and certain maneuvers; using
THR-CUT
function to safely and accurately shut the engine off as needed without
requiring constant adjustment of throttle trims. ................................................................................................................... 40
IDLE-DOWN
:: offset mix that slows the engineis idle point (decreasing the amount of travel of the throttle servo when at low
THROTTLE STICK
POSITION). Typically used to keep the model sitting still on the runway prior to take off, for slow
aerobatic maneuvers such as spins, and for landings. See Idle management. ..................................................................... 40
