First let me thank all at Heli Freaks, I'm fairly new to helicopters and have had trouble getting help as there isn't a heli pilot within 140 miles from me. I finally got a class with Todd Bennett and now I know much more about setting both the Helicopter and radio.

So now I'm putting it to use with further learning. And I can't say thank you enough to everyone at Heli Freaks You are what the hobby is all about Learning, Friendship and Respect. I respect all at Heli Freaks Thanks so much again to all.

I have watched Bob White's video as well as others. They are great and have helped me to setup my new DX7. And soon my Trex 600n

So here my question:

I will be running a GV1 govenor only because it's the one I know I can setup because of Bob's video.
The one I would like I don't know how to setup and that's the Multi-Govenor.
So with that said I have setup the Pitch curve in normal mode as Bob,s video shows. No problem there, now Bob says to setup the throttle curve in normal so if the Govenor fails I will have the proper throttle curve to land. Makes sense but what would be good starting numbers? I am set at 0 25 50 75 100 where do I start? I know that each heli is different but there must be a starting point? I am running an OS Hyper 50 in my Raptor 50se. I plan on using the Hyper 50 in my still to be built Trex 600n Nitro Pro. I would use the YS 50 but can't find one. So any help would be very helpfull. Thanks again Bill

Most don't run the gov in normal - only Idle1 or 2

If you get the multigov you can run it in limiter mode in normal then you only need to make sure your curves are close.

But to answer your question with a hyper you should be hovering around 5 degrees of pitch and probably 40 precent throttle or so.

By the way been looking at all the gov out there and have made up my mind I will go with the Mult-gov think most like it.
