Philip, did you ever get your radio to go to 100% on the throws? im having the same problem.
Ive set the end points to 120% and the mixing is all good but when i go full forward, it gets up to 75% and thats it.

No I just got another radio. I was considering putting adjustable potentiometers in line with the radio's POTs to tweak the throws to the correct range. _________________ So even the rain that falls isn't actually going to fill our dams and our river systems

This is not a good idea. Ive tried it, it is like trying to balance a seesaw by placing ball bearings on each end.
If you add resistance to either end of the potentiometer, you also move the center neutral point and make the travel unequal in the two directions, which really messes things up.
The only simple way to adjust full throttle endpoints is either with a physical travel stop, or in the software. _________________ Great minds discuss ideas. Average minds discuss events. Small minds discuss people
