Throttle channel doesn't go below -13% and stuck on Idleup.

In case you do not know something or you are not sure, here is the right place for your question.

The Channel monitor on my tx shows -100% when I hit throttle hold.
But spirit software showes -13%.

I am now confused of what to expect.
Should I expect 0% on screen?

Yes, you should expect 0%.
This mean that your throttle channel was still not adjusted correctly and has default range.

Wow.. how have I missed it !?
I actually fly like this 3 other helis.

Can you point me to the place on the manual where it is discussed?

Thank you

Hello Lee Jordan,
I think you should reach "0" in the spirit settings in the diagnostic tab !

You should increase the value for the throttle hold setting (from -100 to -87?) until the exact value "0" is reached in the diagnostic tab (throttle) - this is only a matter of setting in the remote control, not in the FBL -

Best Regards

Thank you.
I will do that.

Anyway, I did the test flight and heli flies real nice regardless of this throttle hold issue.

Cheers
