Default learn RC problem with Futaba 18 MZ

I am having a small issue with RC learning of a brand new K 45 G3 M. My TX is a Futaba 18MZ.
Although I never had problem setting other kingtech turbines with my radio, i have encountered a strange issue with trim setting.

Firstly I have reversed Throttle as usual on Futaba radios, increased the steps on the trim to be able to start/shutdown turbine quickly without having to go through the whole length of the trim but problem relies with trim setting itself; full trim down turbine stops when I apply a couple of clicks GSU shows turbine ready but as soon as I go past mid-throttle trim, GSU shows again throttle idle… Despite this fact, I was able to make 2 successful runs/flights with throttle trim in mid position.

I am almost sure that this is related to a setting on the radio, but i don't want to take the chance with trial and error attempts, therefore prefer if someone had a the same problem and solved it.

Thanks in advance

For those interested in the subject, i was able to solve my problem. In the trim setting of the Throttle you can have it either combine or separate. when i set it to separate, throttle trim behaved normally and issue was solved. Re learned RC and all seem to be working flawlessly. i will be testing turbine tomorrow hopefully.
