Default RE: setting idle on electric model


ORIGINAL: rgreen24

I am using a 14 MZ, and have to adjust the throttle trim before each flight to get the idle where I want it to be. IS there a better way to do this may'be put it on a switch?


TIA
I use the throttle cut function on the 14MZ assigned to a switch . I set the throttle cut 'on' setting just low enough to arm the ESC and when I flip the throttle cut switch 'off', the motor goes to my selected idle speed without touching the trim at all. When I am ready to kill the motor, I just flip the throttle kill switch back 'on'.

Works great every time.
