Default Airtronics MX3FG some simple questions

Hello there,

I have a MX3FG and i just have a few questions about the LCD display options?

what does ARC mean?
what does EPA mean?
D/R?
SUb-T?

I know that there are Throttle and Fwd and Rev control there but I just wasnt sure what the meaning of each are?

Thanks for any help... The instruction manual doesnt say anything about it in detail...

ARC/Expo- Changes the curve of how fast the throttle moves from 0 to full power. Positive is faster movement in the first half of the trigger/steering range, and slower in the second half. Negitive is the exact opposite.

EPA- Endpoint adjustment. Endpoint is how for full throw on servo or speed controller. You use this to limit brake or full power by limiting the throttle throw. It is also used to limit the travel of your steering servo to stop strain.

D/R- Dual rate, basically EPA, but instead of controlling left/right, it reduces both endpoints the same amount.

Subtrim- it is a half step increment version of the trim levers.

Arc/Expo for steering is one of the most overlooked features on modern radios.

play with it, you'll want a negative number.
