Programming Menu 4 – Throttle Input Range (PWM)
Thedefaultsettingis1.2msto1.8msandshouldworkwithmostradio
systems. This option allows for proper throttle input with many different
radiosystems.However,someradioshaveawideroutputrange,andmay
giveamorelinearresponsewiththe1.1msto1.9msrange.Ifyoufeel
there is too much “dead” area in the stick movement near full throttle, try
adjusting the end points in your radio, or change to the wider input range.
Be aware that if these settings are not correct, it may be impossible to
arm the controller.

Troubleshooting
The controller will beep more quietly than normal if the input voltage is
below the cutoff voltage when the battery is connected. Check the voltage
of the battery pack to see if it is correct (charged), or the programmed
cutoff setting if the input voltage is set incorrectly for the voltage of the
pack being used.
If you have trouble arming the controller (and the throttle trim has been
set to minimum), enter the programming mode and try changing the
settingto1.1ms–1.9msinProgrammingMenu4toseeifithelpscorrect
the problem. If it is a computer radio, you may alternatively increase high
andlowthrottleATV(endpoint)percentages.
Note:IncreasingthehighATVwillnothaveaconsequenceonarming
issues,onlylowATV.
Sometransmitters,includingallFutabatransmitters,willrequirethe
throttle channel to be “reversed” for proper operation.
