Three options include a safety function that prevents the motors from being switched off accidentally in flight. <<BR>>
The settings can be changed in the !KopterTool under "Settings" -> "Channels"

 '''The !MikroKopter motors can be started / stopped in 4 different ways.''' <<BR>>

  * Switching on / off via a stick '''without safety function''' <<BR>>
  ~-(In this way, motors can easily be switched off accidentally during flight!)-~

  * Switch on / off via certain positions of '''both sticks'''
  * Switching on / off via stick with additional '''push button'''
  * Switching on / off via stick with additional '''button'''

 The last 3 options can be used to prevent the motors from being accidentally switched off in flight.

<<BR>>

 The setting under ''Motor safety switch'' determines how the motors are switched on / off: <<BR>>
 
  * '''OFF''' <<BR>>
   * Start engines => throttle down + yaw right
   * Stop engines => throttle down + yaw left
   

  * '''Inaktiv''' <<BR>>
   * Start engines => throttle down + yaw right '''plus''' Nick down + Roll left or right
   * Stop engines => throttle down + yaw left '''plus''' Nick down + Roll left or right

  * '''Ch xx''' <<BR>>
  - The channel entered here is assigned to a push button on the remote control <<BR>>
  - This channel is inverted on the remote control so that when the button is not pressed, the channel is switched (254).<<BR>>
   
   * Start engines => Press the push button and hold it '''plus''' throttle down + yaw right
   * Stop engines => Press the push button and hold it '''plus''' throttle down + yaw left

 
  * '''Ch xx + hook at engine start / stop''' <<BR>>
  - The channel entered here is assigned to a 2-way switch on the remote control <<BR>>

   * Start engines => throttle down '''then''' move 2-way switch to position ON
   * Stop engines => throttle down '''then''' move 2-way switch to position OFF<<BR>>
   ~-(The 2-way switch has no function if the gas stick is not at the bottom!)-~
