TIMER

The Timer function may be set for any desired
time, i.e. engine run time, specified times for
competitions, etc. Two independent timers are
provided for your use. The timers are stored
independently with each model, meaning that
when you switch between model setups, the timer
associated with the new model is brought up
automatically.
The timers may be set to start and stop from
the motion of any switch or stick. You may set the
ON and OFF directions freely. Each timer has a
capacity of up to 59 minutes 59 seconds.

the last ten seconds before reaching the target, then
