14sg throttle cut

[phil m]

hi guys im trying to set throttle cut on my 14 sg,iam using switch sh momentary.when I activate throt cut and hold switch sh it opens throttle instead of closing.how do you reverse thro cut,or is it a end point thing?i have my throttle set correctly no binding on either end.when I go to function menu and switch sh ,you can switch on and off around and the throttle closes properly,but than I have no throttle control,im probably missing something simple.

When you select the switch...to the right of the screen is an ON/OFF selection.

Click it.

It takes you to the switch set up menu where there is a NORM and REV option.
Reverse it.

I use the momentary switch for throttle hold and the idle up 3 switch for throttle cut.

I have the throttle cut switch disabled above 17% so there will be no accidental kills while flying.

Use this the same for TC...

Switch the ON and OFF position around...Pretty sure anyway...Pretty new to Futaba myself.lol....

Using the momentary switch as a toggle like that is pretty interesting. I think I might give that a try, it looks pretty slick. Thanks for posting that!

Nice how to! Thanks for the post.

Tried it on my 14SG and it doesn't toggle, it just acts like a momentary on/off switch.

Did you turn on the ALTERNATE feature?

You're the second 14SG owner I've seen today that can't get it to work.
Must be a 14SG issue.

I've always wondered what that was!

Yep, I quadrouple-checked and I had it set up exactly like in the video. It seems weird that it wouldn't work because the logic should be identical, one would think.

Thanks, this is working on my Futaba 14SG...
