Throttle mixer

Phase-dependent settings of throttle tracking with roll, elevation and tail
In the basic transmitter display, use your finger or the
provided stylus to touch the gear icon labeled "F":

The display switches to the blue function menu. Touch
the menu item "THR.MIX":
The throttle needs to follow an increase in pitch;
likewise, the throttle should track with large cyclical
control movements, that is, tilting a swashplate in a
desired direction. The motor output should also be
adapted when the thrust of the tail rotor is increased
so as to maintain a constant system speed. In the mz-
24 HoTT transmitter programs, throttle tracking with
roll, pitch and tail control can be attempted separately.
This is advantageous especially with aerobatics (for
example when performing rolls) since cyclical control
deflections are used with middle collective pitch val-
ues where the carburetor is about halfway open that
require significantly higher motor output.

If you are using a governor to automatically maintain
the rotor speed, the governor adapts the output as
necessary. Otherwise, you can adjust throttle tracking
in these three mixers.
Phase-dependent settings
The here mentioned sub-menu offers the possibility
of phase specific settings. Recognizable on the top
left side of the display in green color is displayed the
phase name. As standard is displayed the name of the
phase 1, which is indicated by the name "NORMAL"
or "PHASE 1". As soon as you will have defined one
or many other phases in the "PHASE" menu, you will
be able to switch among those phases. Activate the
corresponding switch or switches if desired to switch
between the phases.
