Default Is this mix possible?

Hey Futaba support,
First off, thanks for the answers you provide here on this forum. I've learned alot about my new 8FG Super. But I have a quesiton regarding mixing. I would like to take switch B and make it a throttle safety switch. But not only that, make it an engine idle switch at the same time (for my nitro engins). Here's my thoughts:
Position 1 (closest to throttle stick) - Throttle closed, servo non-responsive
Position 2 (mid-position) - Throttle opens to a set idle position but stick still won't control servo (a safety, per se)
Position 3 (farthest away from throttle) - Throttle operates normally.

I'd like to have switch B's mid-position set the idle with no possibility of engine run-up if the gimble is moved. Also would be cool to idle back when I "cross the numbers" with a flick of a switch. :-) Just don't know if it's possible with the current programming ability.

Thanks,
Ronbo
