Setting the knobs on top of the Transmitter

Posted by JD:

"Simply put the right knob sets where you lift off like, 1/3, mid or 2/3 throttle stick input. The left stick sets how much the pitch changes as you move the throttle stick.

I like to set the right knob where my heli is just about to lift at mid stick and one more click lifts it.

the left knob adjusts how smooth you lift and come back down.

I always suggest unplugging the motors and turning on the heli and spin each of the knobs left and then right looking at throttle off, mid throttle and full throttle for each of the four settings leaving the knob your not testing at 12:00 (straight up). Then you will see what they do. So you would limit the travel with the left knob if you are jumping up to fast. Anyway start at straight up on both. Then set your lift off point then adjust the left knob, to make the heli go up and down smoothly (normally should be between 10 O'clock and 2 O'clock.
