Theres a mistake in your model file, this really confused me as a new devo user wondering why throttle hold didnt work .

Transmitter Configuration:
(based mainly off 8ch ini by FlipRide and added ch9-11 from Babay)
I'm using the following switch configuration on my Devo 10:
Throttle Hold: Rudder DR1
6G Mode: F.MOD0
3D Mode: F.MOD1
Idle up: F.MOD2
Dual Rates on Heli (Ch 5 in protocol): AIL DR1
Dual Rates on Devo 10:
Slow: MIX0
Mid: MIX1
Fast: MIX2
Here's how i set up my model ini:
.
Standard stuff for a start:
name=V977
mixermode=Advanced
[radio]
protocol=KN
num_channels=11
fixed_id=134562
tx_power=150mW
Throttle/Pitch on Channel 1: Just simple linear curve.[channel1]
template=simple
[mixer]
src=THR
dest=Ch1
Aileron on Channel 2: Expo DR curve with the following settings: (if you are entering this into Devo10 by hand, the GUI has high rates as a default, so the label is opposite of mine in case you are confused.)
| Slow Rate | Default (no trigger or MIX0) | Scale to 60% | Symmetric, Expo 60 Curve |
| Mid Rate | MIX1 | Scale to 85% | Symmetric, Expo 60 Curve |
| Fast Rate | MIX2 | Scale to 125% | Expo 0 curve/ 1 to 1 curve |

Elevator on Channel 3: Pretty much the same as Aileron[channel3]

Rudder on Ch4: Similar to Throttle[channel4]
template=simple
[mixer]
src=RUD
dest=Ch4
Dual Rates on Heli on Ch5: Min/Max curve for ON/OFF. AIL DR0= Normal Rates, AIL DR1 = Double Rates[channel5]
template=simple
[mixer]
src=AIL DR1
dest=Ch5
curvetype=min/max
points=0
Throttle Hold on Ch6: Similar to Ch5. RUD DR0 = Hold OFF, RUD DR1 = Hold ON[channel6]
template=simple
[mixer]
src=RUD DR1
dest=Ch5
curvetype=min/max
points=0
Idle Up on Ch7: Similar to Ch5/6. FMODE2 to activate, FMODE 1 and 0 will deactivate. (Idle up not available in FMODE0/ 6G mode anyway)[channel7]
template=simple
[mixer]
src=FMODE2
dest=Ch7
curvetype=min/max
points=0
3D/6G flight mode on Ch8. Similar to ch5-7. FMOD0 to activate 6G mode, FMODE1 for 3D Mode[channel8]
template=simple
[mixer]
src=FMODE0
dest=Ch8
scalar=-100
curvetype=min/max
points=0
Trim channels 9-11: Haven't adjusted them yet, didn't see the need so far.
[channel9]
template=simple
[channel10]
template=simple
[channel11]
template=simple
Virtual Channel 1 for Timer 1. I like to set up one countdown timer which runs whenever the rotor is spinning, and stops when the rotor stops.
I used complex template with replace MUX, so that while Idle up is off, it counts whenever throttle is > -100%, and when Idle up is on, it counts regardless of throttle position.[virtchan1]
template=complex
[mixer]
src=Ch1
dest=Virt1
