Mode change on Optic 6
I changed the mode (from 2 to 1) on my Optic 6 as per the instructions, and set up a model which has been flying just fine but when I went to set up the second model last week I noticed that it was acting like the transmitter was still in Mode 2.
After a bit of head-scratching I see that you can set the mode on model-by-model basis -- which seems awfully strange, since I can't imagine anyone bothering to go through all the hassle of changing the transmitter mode (requiring the removal of the back of the transmitter case) when switching models.
Why not just make the software portion of the mode change a global setting rather than having it specific to each individual model memory?
Also, why does the throttle trim only work in one setting of the flight condition switch -- change the flight condition and you can't trim the throttle.
