Governor
From RC Helicopter Wiki
A device connected inline with a nitro helicopter's throttle servo and the receiver, the governor has a sensor on the engine and is used to regulate the RPM of the engine. The desired RPM is set on the unit before flight, and the governor monitors engine parameters such as actual RPM and temperature, then adjusts the throttle setting accordingly to give a constant head speed.
