Hi.
I am flying an Ultra Stick 60 with a 9C radio set up for quad flaps as per the Futaba website instructions.
My question is how to add a mix to chop the throttle down to near idle when the crow feature is switched on.
I wouldnt want this to be a full time feature so flipping another switch to make this active/inactive would be a good thing.
I did use one of the linear mixes to do this but it only allows me to program the throttle to a percentage which means that when the throttle is at full, throwing switch C will cut the throttle down to near idle. However, if the throttle was at less than full to begin with, the throttle will shut off completely when the switch is thrown.
Am I going about this the wrong way? Should I be slaving the crow to the throttle when I want it activated instead of the throttle to the crow and, if so, how?
A full speed dive is not the time to be hunting for switches and throttle settings!
Hope this made some sense.
TIA.
