V-Tail Differential (Air and Sail Types only)

The V-Tail Differential screen enables you to increase or
decrease the amount of differential between control surface
throws.
Positive Differential values decrease the amount of "up" travel
without affecting the "down" travel on the opposite control
surface.
Negative Differential values decrease the amount of "down"
travel without affecting the amount of "up" travel on the opposite
control surface.
The V-Tail Differential menu option only appears when V-Tail A or
V-Tail B is active in Aircraft Type.

Throttle Cut

The Throttle Cut menu option enables you assign a switch position
to stop an engine or motor. Throttle Cut activates regardless of
Flight Mode.
When you activate Throttle Cut, the throttle channel moves to the
pre-programmed position (normally Off).
You may need to use a negative value to move the Throttle chan-
nel to the off position.

Throttle Curve

You can use the Throttle Curve menu option to optimize the
throttle response. A maximum of 7 points are available on the
throttle curve.

1. Move the throttle stick to the position where you wish to add
the new point.

of the curves, that curve must be active in the Throttle Curve
screen before you can make any changes.
