Idle Management: Idle Down And Thr-Cut; D/R , Exp ) - FUTABA 10CAG Instruction Manual

Throttle cut ( THR-CUT ) ( ACRO HELI
STICK at idle). The movement is largest at idle and disappears at high throttle to avoid accidental dead sticks. In HELI ,
there is an additional setting, THR-HOLD . See p. 99.
GOAL of EXAMPLE:
Decrease the throttle setting (at idle)
to stop the engine with the flip of a
switch.(Note that you MUST assign
a switch. The default is NULL . We
recommend SWITCH C in the down
position, with IDLE-DOWN programmed
to SWITCH C in the center and down
positions.)
Where next?
**Also LOGIC SW(Lsw1 to 3) may be assigned. Set up LOGIC SW : See p. 38.
The switch's location and direction must be chosen. It defaults to NULL to avoid
accidentally assigning it to a switch, which might result in an unintentional dead
STEPS:
Open BASIC menu, then open THR-CUT
function.
Activate the function. Choose desired
switch, and the position which activates
the function.**
With THROTTLE STICK at idle, adjust
the rate until the engine consistently
shuts off but throttle linkage is not
binding.*
