Oh by the way some guys also use some kind of return spring on their throttle so if the receiver dies it will pull the throttle back to idle. But personally I don't like that idea because then your servo is always pulling against that spring when the throttle is open. It seems to me it will put wear on the servo and certainly drain the battery pack faster, but that's just my opinion.
