Nano CP X Soft Start
I discovered today that if I flip it out of TH while in idle up (100% throttle), it has a nice slow soft start.

Yeah I noticed that too
What's weird is that it doesn't work if you're not in idle up. Flip TH off with the stick halfway up in normal mode and you get a distinctly 'hard' start. |

The 130x has a soft start around 68%+ throttle to use for starting in idle up.

There is a certain point in the TC where the soft start is activated by the ESC, if
the throttle starts high enough, AFAIK. This is to allow soft starts and normal mode starts (I switch between the two methods on my Nano). |

Hey guys I've never tried the "soft start" so you are saying I put TH on then flip the idle up switch to stunt mode then I put the collective stick in the center? And then turn off TH and it will spool up softly. ??? Do I have that right. Cause one time I has the collective stick one quarter the way up and turned off TH and almost stripped my main gear. She spooled up like a bat out if hell. Lol ( in normal mode). How do I sift start normal mode if possible too? Thanks

I don't believe it's as high as 70%, but yes. Coming out of throttle hold with less than a certain throttle percentage results in a hard start, and above that percentage a soft start. The recommended throttle for Position 1 ("Stunt mode") is well above whatever that percentage is.
Idling up takes several seconds, during which the heli yaws. Wait for "rudder" commands until it is completely spun up, or the AS3X will slowly yaw the heli in flight. |

I do this and I get power glitches that may or may not go away.

No
Throttle stick at 0
Turn off throttle hold and turn on idle up switch. The helicopter will begin spooling up, move the collective to mid stick and let the motor come to flying speed, fly as normal. Land, Turn on throttle hold to shut it down! Return collective to zero throttle position! Turn off idle up switch.

This works for me every time:
Switch DX8 on and let it initialise TH on Throttle/Pitch centered FM switch to IU2 (2) Plug in Nano battery TH off, wait for full revs and then fly Land, center Throttle/Pitch TH on Unplug Nano battery FM switch to Norm (0) Throttle/Pitch at 0 TH off Switch off DX8
