Eric
Maybe I'm lost but I always set the idle for 2000 with the transmitter adj 
and set the lo end adj. so that it would hold 2000 when brought back from hi 
throttle.As long as I have enough fuel delivery through the regulator for hi 
end I never touch the regulater.
Make that last paragraph so that I can understand how you use the regulator 
to set lo end.
Just here to learn.
