    Great vid as usual :) throttle cut is there and simple to add, go to mixer tab, click and hold throttle tab, click edit, scroll to throttle cut tab and press it, choose active condition, normally i click SF switch once and move it back, then click return, until out of the menu and that's it set .

    Now (as of mid August) the latest Ethos is .3.0 which did address a number of the points raised in this video (such as a pre programmed throttle cut), it was released last month so hopefully even more on the way shortly.

  • @malte9999
    @malte9999 Год назад

    The Ethos way of setting up models should be added to EdgeTX, as an option, when creating a model.
    Like a simple mode, that is similar to the Ethos workflow and an advanced mode where you get more or less what you have now. Then new users would have a much easier learning curve.

      As most pilots that I know only use about 5-10% of OpenTX and EdgeTX (with quad pilots using a lot less) then most of the stuff the majority of pilots use is already here. For those who use more (LUA scripts, advanced setups, glider fixed wing mixes and nore) they are not here yet..

      I have lots of pilot's (including a few Patreons) who couldn't get to grips with OpenTX or EdgeTX. No good if you cant use you new powerful radio. EdgeTX is working on making the interface easier to use but some just want to fly, not spend hours trying to setup a radio model. Happy flying!
