Hi, I just finished my VTOL setup and I’m doing the firsts fly tests. My VTOL is a tilt tricopter with vectoring yaw. My question is the following : I would like to takeoff in FWBA mode without any VTOL assistance and I also want VTOL assistance under a certain speed limit. My problem is that if I enable Q_ASSIST_SPEED, then I cannot takeoff in FBWA without VTOL assistance and if I disable Q_ASSIST_SPEED then I can takeoff in FBWA without VTOL assistance but I also loose VTOL assistance for the reste of the flight. I prefer to takeoff in FBWA because it is less battery impacting and I just want VTOL assistance during flight and of course VTOL landing. Instead of having only one limit in Q_ASSIST options, it could be usefull to be able to set a range (upper and lower limit) where the assistance act. I also see an RC option that is QASSIST 3POS but I did not find how it works and why 3pos is required. This could also reply to my problem but I need more informations on it. I also know I can takeoff in takeoff mode which wont use VTOL assistance but for my use case I prefer takeoff in FBWA for more control.
Thanks for any help.
