Default Failsafe on throttle

Hi guys

I am new to Helis, ad after setting up our Trex 600, with 3Gx for the FBL, and a separate govenener conroling the motor, the model is being flown and gradually getting ino a good "tune" on the 3Gx.

My problem is I have always used the Tx Futaba 12FG 2.4, to control and program the failsafe on the models. I have set all the flying controls to go to centre, with the throttle to go to idle.

This all works apart from the throttle, this just stays under control oof the govener.

How do I get a failsafe to work?

Hmm...Interesting. You should have an aux channel controling the governor? Can you F/S that to off or full low?

Which governor is it? how can the governor output anything when the throttle stick should be clearly at idle? Look closely at your governor programming. I'm not a Futaba user, but that should not be part of the failsafe programming. that sounds like a governor programming problem.
