Adjusting the Rate Percentage Value
The Rate percentage value determines the desired amount and type of Exponential or Adjustable Rate Control.
1) From within the CURVE menu, scroll DOWN to highlight RATE 0%. Press the ENTER
key, then scroll UP or DOWN to increase or decrease the Rate percentage value. Using
a negative Rate percentage value will soften the control feel around Neutral and using
a positive Rate percentage value will heighten the control feel around Neutral.
CURVE RATE setting range is -100% (Mild) to 100% (Quick). The default setting is 0% (Linear).
Changes to the Rate percentage value affects both the channel High side and Low side equally, except for the Throttle
channel, which can be adjusted independently.
The Servo Speed function allows you to slow the transit speed of the Steering, Throttle, Auxiliary 1 and Auxiliary 2 servos. Servo
transit speed can be slowed in both the Forward and the Return to Neutral directions independently. When driving your model,
proper steering and throttle control are vital. For example, lowering the transit speed of the steering servo can help to limit
excessive steering, which will enable you to achieve smoother cornering. In addition, lowering the throttle servo speed can help
to ensure smooth throttle control.

PRO TIP:
Use the Servo Monitor at the bottom of the Speed menu to see your programming changes in virtual real time.
Adjusting the Point Percentage Value
The Point percentage value determines the Neutral Point where the Rate percentage value begins. For example, you may not
want the Point to be centered between the High and Low End Points. You may want the Point to be offset from the center position.
The Point percentage value option is available ONLY when the TYPE ARC option is selected.
1) From within the CURVE menu, scroll DOWN to highlight POINT 50%. Press the ENTER
key, then scroll UP or DOWN to increase or decrease the Point percentage value.
Increasing the Point percentage value will shift the Neutral Point to one side of center
and decreasing the Point percentage value will shift the Neutral Point to the opposite
side of center.
CURVE POINT setting range is 5% to 95%. The default setting is 50% (Centered).
Controlling the Curve Function
1) By assigning the Steering, Throttle High and Throttle Brake Rate and Point programming functions to one or more of the Trim
Switches, Auxiliary Lever or Dial Knob, these functions can be adjusted while driving without accessing the Programming
Menu. In addition, the Steering Curve and Throttle Curve functions can be Toggled 'OFF' and 'ON' by assigning them to one
or more Push-Button Switches. For more information, see the
Key Assignments
section on pages 56 ~ 61.
Auxiliary 1 and Auxiliary 2 Rate and Point programming functions cannot be assigned.
Neutral
Right End Point
Left End Point
Neutral
High Side End Point
Steering, Auxiliary 1 and Auxiliary 2
Throttle
Throttle Servo Speed affects only the Throttle High Side. The Throttle Brake Side is unaffected.
