CHOOSING A PITCH AND THROTTLE CURVES
You have many types of curves to
choose from for both Throttle and

can be adjusted. Any of these 9 points
can be removed or you can create your curve settings. Press on Rate, use the Double arrowed (up or down) box on the right
side of the screen to move any selected point. The double arrowed (up/down) will move in increments of 5%, the single arrows

or down the line to select the point you wish to manipulate. If you wish to remove a point, highlight the point and press Delete.
