| 9vhp v curveHi Jeff - Just a thought... What if you set your throttle servo travel too high, such that it would bind at a 100% setting, and then adjust your throttle curve down so that full stick = full carb open = 75% output on your TX?? Then you would have full throttle on the low end of your idle up 1 curve since the radio will only give a maximum of 75% out?
So the normal curve might look like
low stick = 10% throttle = 40% pitch 1/4 stick = 20% throttle = 50% pitch 1/2 stick = 30% throttle = 60% pitch 3/4 stick = 50% throttle = 80% pitch full stick = 75% throttle = 100% pitch
And the idle up 1 curve might look like
low stick = 75% throttle = 0% pitch 1/4 stick = 65% throttle = 25% pitch 1/2 stick = 50% throttle = 50% pitch 3/4 stick = 65% throttle = 75% pitch full stick = 75% throttle = 100% pitch
Would that work? Since the radio won't give you more than 75% throttle, make it so the carb is full open at the 75% setting. If you never ask for more than that it shouldn't bind up the linkage.
Also, have you ever used the 12 (!) points available on your throttle & pitch curves? Did it make a difference, good or bad?? |
