Throttle-cut function

The throttle-cut function is intended to be used for shutting off the engine. The engine can be conveniently shut off by
pressing the “THR Cut” button. The throttle-cut feature prevents inadvertently shutting off of the engine when lowering the
throttle stick all the way (such as when coming in for a landing). Throttle-cut works only when the throttle stick is down. To set
up throttle-cut, turn on the transmitter and receiver. Actuate the throttle-cut function by rapidly depressing, then releasing the
switch twice. Observe the momentary position of the carburetor barrel on the engine. It should be fully closed (thus shutting
off the engine). If necessary, use the throttle E.P.A. (channel 3) to fully close the carburetor barrel when the throttle-cut is
activated. Now use the throttle trim to open the carburetor barrel so the engine will idle at the desired R.P.M. when the throttle
stick is all the way down.
