Default RE: Governor

Hey Usmc:

I personally think the governor works well in my Raptor 50 using my 9CAP radio. But then the 9C has a governor function under the advanced heli menu wich allows you not only to set you percentages for normal, idle 1, & 2 but it lets you assign to any switch you want (i.e. idle up switch).

My problem with the 9Z is that although i was able to assign the remote channel (on-off) to my idle up switch using the function menu. I cannot set any kind of headspeed percentages for each switch position. (i.e. normal=off, idle1= 72%, idle2= 77%). I understand that each switch position corresponds with a different "condition" I have tried to set values using both the AFR and ATV functions and only have been successful programing idle up 2 by setting position B on the curve for aux 1 to 72 percent.

however when i try to set Idle up 1 the same way on that particular condition it does not respond to the percentages. Another words the governor appears to be in the unlocked mode when the switch is in normal mode this is good. flip the switch to idle 1 nothing happends. flip to idle 2 i get a series of blinks from the governor indicating that it is set to the engine rpm desired wich in turn controls desired headspeed.

Hope this really helps and doesn't confuse anyone
