Throttle Warning on QX7

[Roger Fowler]

I haven't used my QX7 ACCST much for the last couple of years. I just pulled it out again and while it works just fine and I have flown 2 of the 4 models presently programmed, I get a false "Throttle Warning" almost every time I turn the transmitter on or switch models. I did change the internal battery and have searched through the menu for hours and have tried various changes, but have no idea where this is coming from. Anyone have any suggestions? Thanks in advance,
Roger

1) check all the three offset items : throttle trim , mix offset , and output channel offset
2) calibrate ESC throttle

You might need to calibrate the sticks (with as little force as possible).

Throttle warning happens if the Throttle stick is not at its most minimum position when you power the radio on or change models. The stick calibration on the transmitter may need to be performed.

You can use the channels monitor to check whether the value is really -100% in idle position.

The problem can be caused by a rough calibration.
If the trottle stick is pressed to hard to the idle position it will store this position as -100%.
Without this extra pressure the stick will move away and you end up by 0.9x%.
So be careful when calibrate the sticks. Do not pressure the stick to the end positions.

I carefully calibrated the sticks again with minimum pressure on throttle down and it seems to have resolved the issue. I had used a little force previously to make sure it was all the way down. So hopefully that takes care of it. Thanks to all.
