iX12 Manual

2. Throttle Hold is used for intentional autorotations where the pilot can
practice the maneuver of landing the helicopter without power, using the
potential energy of the model.
3. Throttle Hold is a safeguard when things go wrong.
TIP: Always fly with a finger on the throttle hold switch and be prepared to
activate it at any moment in case of an out of control model or unexpected
obstacle in the flight path. Activating throttle hold immediately eliminates
power to the rotor blades. Always activate throttle hold prior to a crash to
help limit damage to the aircraft components.
