Default Airtronic radio on E flite.

Maybe you can suggest something. Have an older Airtronics radio (72Mc) hooked up to electrioc power. No problem bassically but the throttle is dead first 25% of travel on the throttle stick on transmitter. Is that adjustable some where so that I could lessen that dead stick area. Kind of a nuisance moving that throttle so much before motor rotation. Thanks in advance... I get normal full throttle travel when the servo is pluged in place of the ESC as transmitter test.

Most ESC's need to have the throttle calibrated so it sees the full transmitter travel. There should be instructions on the procedure with the ESC or within the airplane setup if a Bind and Fly.
Lacking those instructions search the web for the ESC brand, someone will have them or a YouTube video on the process.

Depending on the ESC, instructions are usually found easily online. What brand/model# is the ESC?

Thank you for your reply. I been away from this site so now my reply is a month late. however, after googling it several time I finally googled a simple method and it was succesfull. With the transmitter at full throttle you plug in the ESC as usual and it was singing a lot of tones and beeps. I waited until it started repeating that my throttle was full on so I retarded the throttle to idle and Wallla, it was in siync... so thank you all for your help, all is well.
