[NSRCA-discussion] JR question

[Troy Newman]

For more info on this...mixing the way described makes the button a
toggle....push it once and kill stays active...push it again and its
released. Mixing it the way I'm setting it up..the mix is only active
when the button is depressed. 

 

Two different methods to accomplish the kill switch, just changing its
application to fit the needs of the user. In that way its flexible, and
helps to customize the setup to how you want it to work. It can do
either or.

Tony,

 

Got your email today...

 

Yes it can be done. I writing it up you don't want to mix button to
throttle...you want to mix throttle to throttle with the button as the
switch. Then when you let go of the button the throttle will return.
Only when the button is ON with the mix be ON hence the kill switch
active

 

I'll get something done on it tonight step by step and then email that
to Bruce.

I have a customer with a JR question that I can't find the answer to....
If you can help, please e-mail me..

 

 

How can we set up the trainer button to "kill" the engine as the button
is depressed, and then return to

normal throttle setting upon release of that button.

 

The problem is, he has it set up on the GEAR switch now...but is either
forgetting to flip the switch after the

engine dies, or is accidentally hitting the switch and when he attempts
to start for the next flight, is frustrated

as to why the engine won't start, until it 'Dawns" on him what has
happened. Needless to say, he gets the

usual "hoss laugh" from the chastizers about him and his face gets red.

 

We have found a way to program "butn" as the MASTER and "throttle" as
the slave and activate it with

the trainer button, however, it retains the "off" condition until the
button is depressed again.  (Other words,

the button, even tho it is spring-return, acts like a switch".)  Can you
help with a suggestion as to how this

might be accomplished?
