That way, the motor is free to spin up more before the clutch engages (getting further up the rpm/torque curve), and then engage hard when it does. Similar to revving a 1:1 car >=3krpm and then dumping the clutch.
Imagine a brakepress on a nitro. Could set up the 3ch to be on/off brakes. Just hold full throttle and flip ch3 off when the flag goes down.
