THR CUT
Throttle cut provides an easy way to stop the
engine. Generally speaking, modelers will do so
by flipping a switch with the throttle stick at idle.
The action is not functional at high throttle to
avoid accidental dead stick landings. The switch's
location and direction must be chosen, as it defaults
to NULL.
Individually adjust the throttle cut activation
setting for each condition. (helicopter)
● Select [THR CUT] in the Linkage menu and access
the setup screen shown below by pushing the RTN
button.
● Select the function name
and return to the Linkage
menu by pushing the RTN
