Understanding that AFR means adjustable <u>Function </u>response clears things up a bunch for me.  Thanks for that insight.  However the description you gave above is not how my 12FG is behaving.  After receiving your reply I programmed this example:

In function menu I made these assignments:
Throttle function to channels 1, 2, and 3,
Throttle2 function to channel 4,
Throttle3 function to channel 5,
Throttle4 function to channel 6,
And all to control J3 and trim T3.

Here is what happens:
The AFR menu provides a curve for each Function, not each channel.
Changing Throttle AFR changes output of channels 1, 2, and 3 together.  There is no way to adjust the curve response of these channels separately, but throttle cut and idle down do work for these channels
Changing AFR for Throttle2 changes response of channel 4 only.
Changing AFR for Throttle3 changes response of channel 5 only.
Changing AFR for Throttle4 changes response of channel 6 only.
By assigning channels 4, 5, 6 to separate throttle functions I can adjust the curves for each of these channels separately, but throttle cut and idle down do not work for these channels.

The End Point menu provides a Travel setting for each channel (not function).  Here I can tweak the total throw of each channel individually but not the curve response.

It makes sense that throttle channels have to be assigned to separate functions to allow separate AFR adjustments.  And I assume this is why Futaba provided 4 throttle functions, to allow up to 4 individually adjustable throttle responses.  It does not make sense that cut and idle down do not work for all throttle functions?

So I am still left with my original programming problem.  How can I adjust the response curve, not just end point travel, for each throttle separately, but still have throttle cut and idle down on all?

By the way, I have loaded latest software version 1.6 into my transmitter.
