require negative values to set a “kill engine” position. Ensure
that the selected position does not cause the throttle servo to
bind or place stress on the carburetor’s control arm.
The momentary “deadman” switch (Switch-H) is a convenient and commonly-used throttle cut
switch. Throttle cut should be off when the switch is in its neutral position.
T. Hold
Throttle hold is used to set the throttle at a programmed position while still allowing the throttle stick to
control blade pitch. This function is often used to facilitate auto-rotation maneuvers.
The throttle hold feature will not work unless a hold position has been assigned a switch using
the flight condition/idle-up function as was done on page 81.
