Normal = 0-100
Idle 1= 90 flatline
Idle 2 = 100 flatline

This is a good base if you are not using your ESC in a governor mode.


If you are using an ESC with a governor mode (stock Protos 500 one does have this option) then I would suggest allowing some head room for the ESC such as using 85% max, unless you really want the crazy headspeed.

If you fly in normal mode you may or may not want to have a bit of a sharper throttle increase at the start of the curve, to stop the headspeed dropping when coming downwards.
