When you add Flight Modes within Forward Programming, additional tuning 

options are added in the AS3X Setting menu. Be sure to change through all 

the flight modes with your assigned switch and verify values for each feature 

for every flight mode.  

Select 

Forward Programming

 -> 

Gyro Settings

 ->

 AS3X Settings

•  AS3X Gains

 can be adjusted for each axis and each mode. Change the 

flight mode switch position when this option is selected and a separate 

screen will appear for AS3X gains on each flight mode. Adjust the values 

in each mode and each axis as needed.

•  Priority

 screens will also appear for each flight mode, adjust the values 

as desired.

•  Heading

 screens will appear for each flight mode and are defaulted to 

zero. You can increase this value to make the aircraft hold its attitude 

when control input is neutral. Heading gain on the yaw axis is generally 

not recommended because it will require the pilot to steer the aircraft 

through any heading changes.

•  Fixed/Adjustable Gain

 will let you use fixed values or adjust the gain 

from the assigned Gain channel. Each Flight Mode has a separate 

screen with a separate set of values so each axis can be set to Fixed or 

Adjustable in each Flight Mode.

•  Capture Gyro Gains

 lets you easily set your base gain setting. If you are 

using a slider, knob or trimmer to adjust gain when test flying, you can set 

the value you arrive at as the base gain setting in the flight modes using 

this function. Select this option from the AS3X Settings menu, verify flight 

mode, verify the slider, knob or trimmer is in the desired position, and 

select Capture Gyro Gains to set the values for the chosen Flight Mode.

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. 

1. 

Select 

Model Setup

 -> 

Flight Mode Setup

  

Assign a switch for the flight mode selection. See your transmitter manual for 

more information about setting up Flight Modes on your transmitter.

2. 

Select 

Model Setup

 -> 

Channel Assign

 

Link the functions by assigning the Flight Mode channel. Select the same 

Flight Mode channel you picked within forward programming, set the switch 

to 

Flight Mode

.

3. 

Select 

Model Setup

 -> 

Digital Switch Setup

 

Match the Flight Mode functions. Select 

Flight Mode

 in the switch selection, 

a set of values appears for each flight mode.  

Set Flight Mode 1 to 100%, Flight Mode 2 to 0%, and Flight Mode 3 to -100%.

4. 

Select 

Forward Programming

 -> 

Gyro Settings

 -> 

F-Mode Setup

 

Verify the flight modes change as expected when moving the Flight Mode 

Switch.

5. 

(Only applies to transmitter with trimmer switches, DX9 and higher)  

If you wish to be able to run a trimmer for gain independent for each flight 

mode, 

Select Model Setup

 -> 

Trim Setup

 

Select 

F-Mode

 for the trimmer that is assigned to gain.
