    Nice setup. Seems to all have gone smoother that expected.

    I've always used 70% weight and they fall within all 6 ranges. I wonder if it would be worth checking the limits as far as weight, the find the "best median" value that falls in the middle... lol Whatever works, works... It could be useful in the event of a glitch or something, so it's less likely to move outside the range of your selected mode. Probably not worth the hassle though ;)

    That's some pretty frightful adverse yaw, looks like you could use some differential aileron

    Hmm. QX7 with S2 replaced by a 6 position switch I ended up using a custom curve. I will try the offset next time.

    Lots of modes are why there are lots of crashes, and lots of confusion at times of stress. It is not recommended to do this.
