Hi, I've built an old RC helicopter and after a few problems, I can now start the engine, but if I close the throttle on the radio control it idles with the blades are still spinning at a fairly quick rate. In the engine booklet it says you are meant to hold the fuel line to stop the engine, but this would be very difficult as far as I can see. So, how exactly do I stop the engine without chopping my arms off? is the engine supposed to cut out when the throttle is fully closed or what?
thanks for any replies
