I set BATT_WATT_MAX (to 100W for the first test) but it does nothing (at least in MANU mode). I can easily reach 300W and no limitation happens.
I want to use it to limit power of my motor with a fully charged battery to avoid burning it.
In the description there isn’t mentioned it would work only in some modes or situations.
What I do wrong?
Here is short log of the test:

Thanks for any help!
BATT_WATT_MAX works in all modes except MANU. In MANU you have always full controll of throttle
If battery wattage (voltage * current) exceeds this value then the system will reduce max throttle (THR_MAX, TKOFF_THR_MAX and THR_MIN for reverse thrust) to satisfy this limit.
It isn’t mentioned explicitly in the description, but in the description of THR_MAX etc. the “except of MANU” is mentioned.

Thanks, in meantime I tested in other modes and found it as well.
I can confirm it works in all modes except manu.
