Ban flipping setter then take over (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

embargo

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'ban' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'flipping setter then take over' is the wordplay.
'flipping setter' becomes 'embar' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'then' becomes 'ergo' (therefore).
'take' is a deletion indicator.
'over' becomes 're'.
'ergo' with 're' taken away is 'go'.
'embar'+'go'='EMBARGO'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for embargo that I've seen before include "Commercial break" , "Prohibit" , "Order forbidding ships to enter or leave port, and a ban on trade" , "Government order imposing a trade barrier" , "Commercial ban" .)
