Disconnect one pole of the motor until you're ready to fly thereby disabling it. I don't think this would hurt the speed control (obviously you'd want to find out before giving this a try). </DIV>

Hi Dave,<BR> Like the throttle up idea. Wasn't sure how annoying the brake/deadstick switch would be we is why I called it an experiment. One of those things I will have to try. Might be best to have the brake on a seperate switch.<BR> <BR>Jim,<BR> <BR> Vanquish Fury outrunner 37mm 800kv (iirc) w/ CC Phoenix 45<BR>2m stuff AXI 5330 F3A w/ CC HV 85<BR> <BR>Chris,<BR> <BR> The only down side to the shorting plug is weight and an extra connection point. It would be nice to be safely ready to fly without having to mess with the canopy.<BR> <BR>Anthony<BR> <BR>

<P class=ecxMsoNormal><FONT face=Verdana size=2><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana"> Hi Chris,<BR> <BR> Never used one but like the idea. I use the throttle cut function on the SD-10. It is set to a switch so when not flying my TX is always in the throttle cut position. When my caller puts the plane down I flip the switch and my motor starts at the lowest possible idle with the trim centered. If I need to adjust my idle I can do it with the trim.<BR> Since all of the switches are 3 position my next experiment is to use the idle up function to set the brake on the middle switch position. <BR> Has the E-motion flown yet?<BR> <BR>Anthony<BR> </SPAN></FONT></DIV>
