On 3DR transmitters, use the two-position switch and the
three-position switch shown below to select a flight mode.
Stabilize mode
Stabilize allows full manual control of
altitude, position, and orientation without
autopilot assistance. Use stabilize for
acrobatic flying and to recover your copter.
Loiter mode
With automatic autopilot control of
altitude, position, and orientation, loiter is the
easiest way to fly. Just release the sticks and the
copter will hover in place.

In this manual, the position of the three-position switch is specified
first and the position of the two-position switch is specified second.
For example, “center/back” requires the three-position switch set to
center and the two-position switch set to back.
