Default DA-85 with MTW-90 Canister use a Throttle Curve??


Set-up; Aeroworks 75cc Extra 260 with DA-85 with 26X10 and MTW-90 canister and Futaba 14MZ Radio

Question; I think I need a Throttle Curve, should I and the best way of setting it up?

It has tons of power, but it feels like it's all on or at idle, not a smooth linear transition.


I have my first IMAC event this weekend and I'm worried about changing my set-up prior, but during practice, it was evedent that I need a Throttle Curve.


thanks ...... Ward

Note max rpm at full pwer, then, with your throttle stick at half position, engine running, adjust throttle curve mid stick position in tx to a point that reflects approximately 1/2 the max RPM noted while at full throttle....this will get you a fairly linear 'feel' with stick movement. From here you can fine tune it to your flying style.
