Autorotation Restart Time

Off / 5s / *10s / 15s / 30s / 90s
This parameter is only used in “Governor (Elf )” and “Governor Store” modes, and works when the throttle value is within 5%~40%.
During the period of auto rotating (to land), pilots still have the chance to cancel the operation by interrupting the process and restarting the motor quickly.
E.g. when set the parameter to 10 seconds,enabling the throttle HOLD switch (to activate the throttle protection) in flight, the motor will cut off the output and let the helicopter land. While, if you want to end this process immediately, then you need
to “unlock” the HOLD switch (to exit the throttle protection) and increase the throttle value to over 40%, and the ESC will temporarily switch the acceleration time to 1.5 seconds (that is: it reaches the full
speed from standstill in 1.5s) and output power quickly. This action protects the helicopter from crashing caused by the motor’s slow acceleration. However, if “locked” the throttle HOLD switch over 10
seconds, the ESC will still output power slowly at a super soft acceleration rate (that means it will take 11s to reach the full speed from standstill) even if you “unlock” the throttle HOLD switch and increase the throttle value promptly.
Security Warning: For safety, please pay attention to the following points.
● When the landing process ends early and the helicopter gets back to ground before the “autorotation restart time”, it’s prohibited to “unlock” the throttle HOLD switch before turning off the ESC. Otherwise, the helicopter may rotate and accelerate to a high speed in 1.5s and cause accidents. E.g., if “unlock” the throttle HOLD switch in the “Auto rotation restart time” with the helicopter is still in “IDLE” mode,
main rotor blades will spin rapidly and the helicopter may drift and tilt even on the ground.
● If switch the flight mode from “IDLE” to “NORMAL” and move the throttle stick to the bottom position (0% throttle) or “lock” the “Throttle Cut” switch on the transmitter, main rotor blades will not rotate even if
you accidentally “unlocked” the throttle HOLD switch.
● In “governor” mode, if set “Auto Rotation Restart Time” to “Off”, the motor will always restart at the super soft acceleration rate (it takes 11 seconds to reach the full speed from standstill). Please attention!
