Idle up?

[ph678]

Ive been through all the hot keys and i just cant find idle up. Im probably being a complete tool but
does anyone know where the idle up options are? On my old phoenix i just pressed 3 and it went into idle up. Please help

Little more info please. What transmitter are you using? Check your throttle settings, should have the option to set a normal throttle curve, and maybe a stunt/mode 1 curve. You can select which switch to use with some models.

i use the radio for the flight modes the same as when flying a model
just set the radio as a normal flying model
open up the pitch range in the sim settings to +/-10/12 and jobs a good one

It's nothing to do with calibration, it's just setup in your radio. Idle up is just a flight mode in the radio, a different mode. For "normal" you program in a linear throttle curve. For idle up (also called flight mode 1), you program in a flat throttle curve.

Phoenix doesn't receive ANY signal or hint that the flight mode has changed. Rather it just sees a flat throttle value from the TX.
