73XP6102 - Helicopter Manual
Accessing the Throttle Curve Function
1. Place the transmitter switch in the
On position.
2. Press the Down and Select keys
simultaneously to enter the
Function Mode.
3. Press either the Upor Downkey
until THRO appears in the upper
portion of the LCD.
Note: Use NORM for hover curves and
STUNT for aerobatics. We will
concentrate on the hovering curve
during this example.
4. Press the Select key to select the point
of the curve you want to change.
5. Press either the (+) or (-) key to
change the value of the current curve
point.
The range of each point is 0–100%
in .5% intervals.
Note: In each curve, the factory setting
indicates INH for points 1 and 3.
These values are 25% and 75%
respectively if no value changes are
made to any other points. If any of
the other points have been changed
while these points were inhibited,
the inhibited points will also change
to plot a smooth curve. If you want
to keep this from happening, press
the Select key until the display
indicates P-1 or P-3 at the upper
right portion of the LCD. Press either
the (+) or (-) key to activate the
points 1 (25%) or 3 (75%). The
values for each of these curves can
then be fully adjusted by pressing
either the (+) or (-) key.
6. To set curves for STUNT mode, press
the Select to highlight the NORM
function, then press the (+) or (-) key to
select the STUNT function. Repeat
Steps 4 and 5 to complete the
procedure.
7. Access the PITCH CURVE function by
pressing the Upkey.
8. Access the THROTTLE HOLD
function by pressing the Downkey.
9. Exit the THROTTLE CURVE function
by pressing the Down and Select
keys simultaneously.
Throttle Time Settings
The throttle trim lever is only active when
the flight mode switch is in the normal
position. The throttle trim is used to
increase or decrease the engine power
when the flight mode switch is in the
Normal mode. The throttle trim lever has
no effect on positions 1 or throttle hold.
Note: Making changes to the throttle
trim lever does not change the input
values for any of the points on the
throttle curve; it merely makes
adjustments to the engine idle
speed position.
