7.3.Idle trim

The next step is to define the basic settings for full throttle (L), idle () and for the lock point (Œ). These settings ensure that servo 2 (throttle/brake servo) is set up correctly to suit your model.

7.3.Idle trim

The idle trim can be used to compensate for changes in the running characteristics of any car with an internal-combustion motor, e.g. changes due to fluctuations in motor temperature.

Idle trim allows you to adjust the idle by 28% in either direction. Each increment offsets the idle point by at least 1% (fine) and at most 4% (coarse). You can select the size of the trim increment in the “TRIM” menu point of the „T“ (è6.4, page10). The default setting is MEDIUM (2%).

A vertical bar on the screen shows the current trim setting. In the example on the right the idle has been offset in the direction of “reduced throttle” by about half the full trim range.

7.4.Trimming the brake lock point

The lock point of the brake tends to vary in the course of a race, so we have provided a trim rocker which can be used to compensate for these variations. The rocker affects the lock point of the THROTTLE/BRAKE servo (servo 2).

The brake trim allows you to adjust the lock point by 28% in either direction. Each increment offsets the idle by at least 1% (fine) and at most 4% (coarse). You can select the size of the trim increment in the “TRIM” menu point of the „T“ menu (è6.4, page 10). The default setting is MEDIUM (2%).

A vertical bar on the screen shows the current trim setting. In the example on the right the lock point of the throttle/brake servo has been offset in the direction of “greater brake effect” by slightly less than half the full trim range.
