Color Screen Remote Controller Flight Settings
Flight modes allow you to set different trim settings for each flight mode. Once multiple flight modes are configured, you can adjust the trim settings in each flight mode without affecting the trim settings of other flight modes.
There are 9 possible flight modes available, with flight mode 0 being the default flight mode.
The Flight Modes screen displays an overview of each flight mode. The highlighted flight mode indicates the currently active flight mode. Selecting a flight mode will take you to the configuration page for that flight mode.
Check FM Trim: When the Check FM Trim button is pressed, the trim for the current flight mode is temporarily disabled. This is used to test the effect of the current flight mode's trim on the output.
The flight mode configuration screen has the following options:
Name: Custom name for the flight mode. If configured, this name will be displayed in the lower center position between the trims on the main screen.
Switch: The trigger to enable this flight mode. It can be a switch, knob, telemetry, trim, or logical switch.
Fade In: Gradually change the trim values when this flight mode is enabled.
Fade Out: Gradually change the trim values when this flight mode is disabled.
Trim: To configure a trim, select the trim you want to configure to ensure it is on (yellow). Then, from the dropdown menu, select the flight mode (0-8) that will provide the initial trim value and modifier (= or +). When 3P is selected instead of a flight mode (0-8), the trim will function as a three-position momentary switch.
Modifier: There are two possible value modifiers: = and +. The = modifier directly uses the trim value from the selected flight mode. The + modifier uses the trim value from the selected flight mode, then adds the trim value from the flight mode you are configuring.
Example 1: If you are configuring FM1 and set the value to =0, FM1 will have the current value of the same trim in FM0. In this case, changes to the trim in FM1 will also affect the trim in FM0, and vice versa.
Example 2: If you are configuring FM1 and set the value to +0, FM1 will have the value of the same trim in FM0, plus any trim changes made in FM1.
In this case, changes to the trim in FM1 will not affect the trim in FM0. However, changes to the FM0 trim value will affect the trim value in FM1.
