I put heli in a hover then adjust head speed in the normal curve to be slightly below idle 1 governed head speed. I don’t care what the specific number is. With most radios,if you want to adjust the hover point get it in the air hovering, flip into idle 1 and listen for a small head speed increase and go back to normal then hit throttle hold. Dont move the stick. Shut off engine, go into normal curve and adjust this point, restart and repeat til your happy with the setting. If you are in between points on the curve, adjust both points before and after your hover point. The ramp up to the hover should SOUND like a linear progression, which you already known is not a linear curve in the radio. Setting the curve this way is good for initial break in, warming up the engine and the first step to confirm the gov is working.
