TH-HLD MENU { THROTTLE HOLD }
The Throttle Hold function moves the Throttle servo to a fixed position, either toward the High Side or the Brake Side, and is used
primarily with glow- or gas-powered models. For example, if you're driving a glow- or gas-powered boat, you can use can the
Throttle Hold function to stop your engine with only the press of a button. This feature is often referred to as 'Engine Cut'. Alternately,
you can use the Throttle Hold function to Increase the engine to a steady idle while you're refueling during a race. This feature
is often referred to as 'Idle Up'. If your model features a separate Brake servo, a Brake ON/OFF function is featured that will allow
you to lock out the Brake servo (ON) or allow you control of the Brake servo (OFF) while the Throttle Hold function is turned ON.

High Side
WARNING: The Throttle Hold percentage value can be set Higher than your Throttle High Side and Throttle Brake Side End
Points. To avoid damage to your model, we don't suggest programming a Throttle Hold percentage value that exceeds your
Throttle High Side or Throttle Brake Side End Points.
So that the Throttle Hold function can be turned ON and OFF while you're driving, it must first be Assigned to a Push-Button
Switch. For more information, see the Push-Button Switch Function Assignments section on pages 37 through 39. When
turned ON and OFF, [ TH-HOLD ] ACT or [ TH-HOLD ] INH will be displayed momentarily in a pop-up window.
The Throttle Hold percentage value can be changed while you're driving by Assigning the Hold function to a Trim Switch or
the Auxiliary Dial. For more information, see the ASSIGN Menu section on
pages 37 through 46.
Changing the Hold Percentage Value:
1) From within the RACING menu, scroll UP or DOWN to highlight the TH-HLD
menu.
2) Press the ENTER key to open the TH-HLD menu. HOLD > 0% will be highlighted.
3) Press the ENTER key, then scroll UP or DOWN to choose the desired Hold
percentage value. The Hold percentage value determines the position the
Throttle servo will move to when the Throttle Hold function is turned ON.
Choosing a Positive Hold percentage value will move the Throttle servo
toward the High Side and choosing a Negative Hold percentage value will
move the Throttle Servo toward the Brake Side.
HOLD setting range is 150% to -150%. The default setting is 0%.
Turning the Throttle Hold Function ON and OFF:
As noted above, we suggest Assigning the Throttle Hold function to a Push-Button Switch so that you can turn it ON and OFF
while you're driving without needing to access the TH-HLD menu.
The ON and OFF behavior will differ based on the ACT/INH setting you choose below. We recommend using the INH setting.
With this setting, the Throttle Hold function will always be OFF until you turn it ON. If you choose ACT, the Throttle Hold function
will always be ON until you turn it OFF.
1) From within the TH-HLD menu, scroll UP or DOWN to highlight ACT/INH > INH.
2) Press the ENTER key, then scroll UP or DOWN to choose the desired ACT/INH
setting, either ACT (Active ON) or INH (Inhibited OFF).
ACT/INH setting range is ACT and INH. The default setting is INH.
Changing the Brake Lock-Out Value:
When Car Type II, III, IV,VI or VII is selected, the Brake Lock-Out function can be programmed, which gives you the option to lock
out the Brake servo(s) or retain control of the Brake servo(s). This gives you the option of controlling your separate Brake servo(s)
to keep your model from moving, even when your engine's idle increases when the Throttle Hold function is turned ON.

toward the High Side or the Brake Side. When the Throttle Hold function is

turned ON, you will NOT have control of the Throttle. If your model has a separate
Brake servo and you set the Brake ON/OFF function to OFF, you will still have
