Figure 7.8.3d: Flight Mode Switch configuration
Selecting the Flight Mode Switch option in the RC Channels Assignment will show a
screen for configuring the behavior of the Flight Mode Switch, as shown in Figure 7.8.3d.
The Flight Mode switch in Px4 can switch between up to 6 different modes, and so the range
of channel values is divided into 6 approximately-equal spaced ranges. You can select
which RC channel you want the flight controller to listen to in the Flight Mode Switch
option. Below that, you can configure what flight mode each of the 6 ranges maps to. The
current range will be highlighted in yellow. If the flight mode switch is a digital button, then
you only need to configure the two ranges that actually get used. Otherwise, it's a good idea
to set the unused ranges to one of the modes you actually use, in case the channel value
reports that value as it transitions.
