I have the 7C and being new had no trouble with the th-cut feature. Use the end point on the throttle servo to set idle and then program the th-cut to close the carb just enough to stop the engine. This way if you hit the switch with anything other then idle speed the engine will keep running. Meaning at half throttle if you hit the switch you will hear the engine slow just a bit but because you are not at idle it will not quit. Remember though to set the switch back before flight, I left the th-cut on and couldn't figure out why my engine would not idle properly. I was ready to start adjusting the needles when I noticed the switch in the wrong position. If you forget the switch and turn the radio off and back on you will get a beep telling you the switch is in the wrong position. Getting close eh. LOL
Thanks for the tips. Just one thing I don't understand. If you use the end point of the throttle servo to set idle, how can it move behind that point to close the carb?
