ADDING FLIGHT MODES OUTSIDE OF FORWARD PROGRAMMING
(IN THE TRANSMITTER)
Flight Modes outside of forward programming are set up in the main
transmitter menu and are separate from Flight Modes set up within forward
programming. Flight Modes in the transmitter tie together transmitter-based
features like dual rates and expo, selected channels and positions, trim, and
voice/sound features.

for SAFE gain than what you have assigned for AS3X. It is possible to have
up to five different channels assigned for fine tuning gain. AS3X roll, pitch
