Default Throttle hold switch?

Is there a preferred switch to use for throttle hold on the SD-10G? Would a left or right side switch make more sense?
I'm new enough into helis that I can adapt to the prevailing wisdom.


Thanks,
Lenny

The preferred switch for throttle hold is which ever one you prefer... lol

That is the beauty of fully assignable switches. Personally my TH is the switch on the top right corner and my flight mode switch is on the left front corner.

Use what is cofortable to you, BUT most people have it on the top-front right switch. Make sure you assign 5 and 6 to THold that way if you pull the switch to hard you will still be in hold.

Right side of the radio is typical. Keep in mind that others will most likely fly your model at some point and them not being able to find your TH switch can get ugly.

I have two TH switches set up on mine. That way there is no mistaken it. You catch one or the other or both and it goes into TH.

Thanks for the input. Yes, I know very well that I can assign any switch I want to with the SD-10G. I'll use switch 5/6 as suggested by Mr. H.

Thanks,
Lenny
