[NSRCA-discussion] Transmitter Programming Question

[J N Hiller]

Boy this is complicated. I’ve done this many times on scale airplanes by brushing the lever on a micro-switch with the throttle servo arm.

Don't use a mix.
You need to determine first what the necessary channel output value is to turn the glow on. 
Then set up your plug channel and use throttle stick(J3?) as its input.
In AFR, use a "POINT" curve to trigger the output value you need at 15% throttle to turn glow on, you have 9+ points available and I believe you can move their x-coordinate as well.
Then, for an ON/OFF switch use a dual rate on the plug channel and the panel switch of your choice. You should then be able to set up a second "POINT" curve when the dual rate is active that has all values set to something that will turn and keep the glow off.

I don't have a 12FG here to test this but it should work fine.

OK.  I think I understand.  Pmix the throttle to the channel the receiver controlled switch is plugged into and use the throttle as the Pmix switch.  Yes?

I am trying to turn on an onboard glow plug battery on an O.S. .61RF using a receiver controlled switch, so that the glow will be on when the throttle stick position is less than 15% or so and off above that.  I am drawing a blank on how to accomplish it.
 
I've used the throttle stick as a switch before to get dual rate rudder, but this is different.
 
I have a Futaba 12 FG transmitter and will be using a Futaba R617 receiver.
 
Are there any useful suggestions out there?
