Flight radio switches
AutoQuad has several flight modes. For selecting them we use two channels: the flap (aux1) channel and aux 2. Any channel can be assigned to HF (Heading Free) modes.
Start flying with the Flap switch in manual (down) and Aux 2 in normal (center) position. Aux 2 is normally always in center.

Arming / disarming
Just like the majority of available flight controllers, Autoquad is not armed when applying power.
Arming / disarming is only possible when the switches are set for manual/normal mode!
(FLAP/AUX1=low/manual, AUX2=mid/normal)
For arming the motor, hold throttle down and yaw (rudder) right for 3 seconds.
For dis-arming the motor, hold throttle down and yaw (rudder) left for 3 seconds.
