iX12 Throttle Mixing Question...

My Pulse XT60 26cc gasser that has a tad high idle, and gets variably unstable if we try to end point it down. Gary Hoffman, a Horizon Hobby Rep and poweruser (iX20) noted he has a THR<THR mix set on Swith A that when he flips it on final it decreases his throttle 5%. His plane, like mine, will tolerate that at idle, for a minute or so. This allows a slower touchdown. If he needs power, it's there, just 5% less, until he returns the switch to flight position.

We looked at my iX12 and were able to assign a THR<THR to Switch A in Mix1, but nothing we set on either of the available end points (or TRIM, for that matter), resulted in a drop in RPM.

Any ideas?
