Throttle Cut
Using a template.
Even for a simple model, though, we need to be safe. Assuming the model is electric powered, we
need a way to prevent the motor starting accidentally, potentially causing damage or injury. We
need a throttle lock switch.
This is easy to arrange because Ersky9x provides several templates, one of which will do the job.
Short presses LEFT or RIGHT will take you to page 12/13, the Templates screen. (It's quicker to go
left to get there because it's only two key presses, not 12!)
There in Templates 02 and 03 you will see two kinds of throttle cut mix. T-Cut simply enables the
THR.CUT switch on the transmitter to disable the throttle stick. Sticky T-Cut goes one step further
in safety and requires you to move the throttle stick to Low before the throttle is re-armed.
Let’s use Sticky T-Cut. Highlight it by using the UP and DOWN keys, then press LONG MENU. You
will feel the transmitter vibrate to signal that a change has been made.
To see what has been done, go back to page 5/13, the Mixer screen. Short press EXIT to take you
to the top of page 13 and then short press LEFT a number of times to go to page 5.
You will see that implementing T-Cut has added an extra mix to the throttle channel. The function
of this is to replace the throttle stick input with a full low throttle setting when the THR.CUT switch
is activated. (If you want to see what’s going on, go to the Mixer screen and look at Channel 14. To
understand the logic, you’ll need to study Ersky9x Explained.)
Using a Safety Switch
To get to the Safety Switches page, press LONG RIGHT from the home pages then successive
RIGHT presses until you get to page 9/13.
There are now 4 'type' options: S, A, V and X:
S = safety switch A = Audio switch V = Voice switch X = Sticky Safety switch.
