This page describes how to setup the rate mode.

Introduction

Rate mode uses only Gyroscopes, the target rate is defined by the transmitter stick angle. Rate stabilization can be used on all axis: Roll, Pitch and Yaw.

When the sticks are neutral, the target rate is zero so the vehicle hold current angle.

When a stick (roll stick for example) is full range the vehicle rotate in roll axis according to the Rate mode response defined in degrees. 

It's up to the pilot to return the craft to level. Beginners should start with Attitude mode or Rate trainer mode

Go to Configuration > Input > Flight Mode Switch Settings

In this example we have set two flight modes using Rate stabilization:

• Stabilized5 is affected to flight mode position 5 and uses Bank1 (default rates).
• Stabilized6 is affected to flight mode position 6 and uses Bank2 (high rates, see bellow).

Basic tab

Tick the "Use basic configuration" checkbox.

Rate mode can be adjusted here, from Moderate to Insane.

Remember the Max rate limit (see bellow) still limit this setting, you should use the Advanced tab instead.
