HELP! Setting up Throttle Idle
 
Have my throttle working fully open and closed. The only problem is, is I have no idle/trim. Could someone let me know how to get my trim/idle to work.

Thanks

Shorten your throttle travel mechanically so that at full throttle servo travel, the throttle is fully on.

Move throttle trim half way, Throttle lever on transmitter closed. The throttle on the engine should be open the width of a straight pin shank

I like to use an adjustable length.connector at the servo end so I can adjust some of this.

I just had the same problem on my 6EX Faast 2.4 setup. (My fault) I didn't have the idle & also the fully open set close enough so like a dummy, I used the "E.P.A." (end point adjustment) in the TX to get the proper WOT & idle. It worked fine....BUT..............it killed my throttle trim & also the throttle cut.

I then went back & reset the E.P.A. to nuetral & did it the proper way, usingdifferent arms & holes in the arms Etc Etc & minor E.P.A. adjustments. In my case it was called laziness.......................
