Flight modes problem

Hi all,

I have a problem trying to change flight modes on mission planner.
They always keep on “1500 mode 4” as you can see at the picture

At same time it seems that there is a “second flight mode” on failsafe screen that matches with servo output.

I don’t understand anything of this. Maybe anyone could help me?

Thanks so much.

Pau,

Normally users change the vehicle’s flight mode using a switch on the transmitter. By default that is channel 8 from the transmitter. The Flight Mode screen shown above shows that AP is configured to always set the vehicle to “Manual” mode no matter what position the Transmitter’s Channel 8 switch is put in.

The configuration is described on the wiki here.

Hi Randy,

Thanks for your answer.
I didn’t really explain very well… but I finally solved changing the transmitter channel to 8. Now I can change flight modes using switch.
I don’t know why the channel 5 doesn’t work for me.

Best Regards,

Pau,

It should be possible to use channel 5 instead of channel 8 by setting the MODE_CH parameter to 5. I normally also use channel 5…
