Default Futaba 12Z and KT 140

Hi Gents,

I've set up 5 different types of turbines on both JR and Futaba, but this one has me stumped!

I've got the throttle set to REVERSE and I'm using the SC switch for trim (easy to reach for shut off and start).

I've run through the radio learning sequence three times and the GSU still shows 100% no matter what position the throttle or trim is in. I set ATV's to 100% and then I tried 135%. No luck.

Help is appreciated!

Michael

just for test purposes take the trim off the SC switch and set as normal.

Do you see on the hand data terminal move percentage wise when the throttle stick is moved. Minus to plus etc???

How are you using the SC switch during the radio learn? SC down should be 0 trim (-130 with throttle reversed), SC middle should be (-100) and SC up is full trim at (-70).

I figured it out. Another modeler sent me the mdl file when I bought the jet. He uses CH6 for throttle and I usually use CH3. I had a test receiver and plugged the thr into ch 3. DOH!!!

Once changed, all was right with the world.
