I want to have a "throttle lock" that will prevent the accidental bumping of the throttle stick causing my motor/engine to increase in speed. How can I do this?

To do so you need a free programming mix. Activate the mix and assign the MASTER and SLAVE as THROTTLE. Turn TRIM ON and LINK OFF. Choose a switch and position at which you want the throttle to hold. Then on the rates screen, you need to set the high and low throttle rates. The high rate will be a negative value, the low rate will be positive. So for example, if you desire the throttle to hold around the 5% range (low idle in most cases) then the high rate will be -95% and the low rate would be +95% with no offset. This will still allow you to trim the throttle but will hold it to a preset position with little or no effect if you move the throttle stick when the mix is active.
