Programmable Throttle Curve
The 10X allows for up to two programmable throttle curves to be
programmed and selected via flight modes or switches. The throt-
tle curves allow for up to eight points to be stored and manipulat-
ed. Typical uses for throttle curves include: adjusting the curve to
achieve a more linear throttle response; desensitizing a particular
part of the throttle stroke to maintain a more consistent throttle
setting that’s typical for rolling circles or torque rolls; or for giv-
ing reduced throttle range (high and low, which is useful for stall
turns, etc.) in any selected flight mode or switch position.
Accessing Throttle Curve
To access Throttle Curve, enter Code 18 in the code number
access selection or use the direct mode method.
The screen will appear as follows:
Pressing yes with hold all servos in their positions. This would be
necessary if the engine was running and you wanted to change
the throttle curve without shutting off the engine. Selecting no
will allow all servos to operate normally. This is useful for seeing
exactly how the adjustments you make are affecting the throttle
position.
Pressing yes or no, the screen will now look like the following:
Adjusting the throttle curves is very similar to adjusting multi-
point programmable mixing (Code 56-58). Note that up to 8
points can be stored and manipulated, including the low (L) and
high (H) points.
Graphic Throttle Curve
The graphic throttle curve located on the right side of the screen
is a useful reference when adjusting or storing points. Up to 8
points can be stored at desired positions and each point can be
moved to any position from 0 to 100%.
Adding New Points
Any time STORE appears on the bottom of the LCD, you can add
a new point on the curve. Move the throttle stick and note that the
vertical line where the cursor is located can be moved to any
desired position. To store a new point, move the throttle stick to
the desired position and touch the STORE key at the bottom of
the screen.
Clearing a Stored Point
When the display’s cursor indicates that the throttle is in the posi-
tion of a point you wish to clear, pushing the CL key or the + and
- keys simultaneously will clear that point. As a result the remain-
ing points’ numbers will change accordingly.
In and Out
IN refers to the throttle stick position. OUT refers to the actual
position of the throttle servo. The range of each point is
adjustable from 0-100% using the + or- keys.
Exponential Function
The Exponential Function allows you to smooth the selected
curve. Touch the SEL below the EXP to activate the Expo func-
tion.
