Throttle does not work on helli's On AFP
I seem to be having problems with the throttle on helicopters.
The throttle is full all the time only the pitch has any effect.
Throttle hold works ok.
Has any one else had the same problem?
Throttle is on channel 3
Pitch is on channel 6
I have set up my radio, on an old Field Force 7 as follows:
Throttle and pitch 0 to 100 and then calibrated AFP.
The throttle bar & pitch bar move accordingly from 0 to 100 %
Confirming that calibration and that the transmitter function is ok.
When flying I have found that the throttle pitch curve has no effect what so ever, you can set throttle 0.0.0.0.0 if you wish to, you just get a constant head speed.
That’s ok for 3d flying but not very realistic for normal flying making the helli’s very sensitive round the hover position and for landing. You can off course adjust the pitch to reduce the sensitivity.
I would like to know is this programmed this way or is this a bug.
I am using the latest down loaded version from the AFP site.
Throttle works fine with aeroplanes.
The plane side of the program is fantastic, so I am hoping that I have something wrong rather than the heli program just being set for a constant head speed.
