Devo 7e - timers with throttle starting with -80 was created by silverAG
For some of my whoop quads with silverware, I'm using throttle with offset so my starting point is not -100 but -80 - and I have problems with timers because they start to count when throttle goes from -99 to 0 and above - so timers counts even when my throttle stick is down at -80% and motors are off (motors on my whoops with silverware starts to spin at around -75).
Is there any way I can set timers to work on custom throttle value, like, for example, when throttle pass -75 and not -99?

Here's one way to do this:
Set the Timer Switch to a virtual channel.
Edit the virtual channel mixer:
set to Simple
Src = THR
Curve = 9 point
Point 1 = -100
Point 2 = -89
Leave Points 3 thru 9 at 0
This starts my timer @ -74% on a new model file (no trim/offset/throttle curve).

I tried simmilar trick but I used complex mixer and different points. I'll try this - looks simple and OK.
Thanks!

Tried. It works fine! But not with sticky throttle hold
I tried to replace THR with Ch3 as source in Virtual channel because my sticky throttle hold value is -125 at Ch3 - and sticky throttle behaves as expected - when I move stick, Ch3 stays -125 (which is OK and as expected for sticky throttle) but timers are still counting as soon as throttle stick is moved... Of course, virtual channel is assigned to timers...
So I tried to use Ch3 instead THR as input in Virtual channel, but that does not help - looks like Ch3 when used as input in virtual channels still pass original throttle value, and not the one modified by "sticky hold" code.
Strange...

You are right, and I don't think that's the way it should work.
Can one of the devs comment on this please?
