ExpressLRS

1. Angle Mode
ANGL is displayed in the OSD. Pilot needs to control the flight altitude by operating
the throttle joystick. The quadcopter will maintain a horizontal attitude when the
direction joystick is moved to the center. The operation is relatively simple. Novice
pilot can achieve simple flight with a little practice because the drone keeps its
levelled position once the pilot lets go of the stick.
Difficulty：★★★☆☆

2. Horizon Mode
HOR is displayed in the OSD. Pilot needs to control the flight altitude by operating
the throttle joystick. The quadcopter will maintain a horizontal attitude when the
direction joystick is moved to the center. Unlike Angle mode, you can do flips and
rolls when the stick is at full deflection in Horizon mode. This mode features difficult
operations and is suitable for skillful pilot.
Difficulty：★★★★☆

3. Air Mode
Air is displayed in the OSD. The altitude and attitude of the quadcopter are manually
controlled by pilot. The quadcopter will maintain its current attitude when the
direction joystick is moved to the center. Acrobatic flight is possible. The operation is
difficult and pilot needs a lot of practice.
Difficulty：★★★★★

4. Turtle Mode
CRASH FLIP SWITCH is displayed in the OSD. If the quadcopter crashes into the
ground and the fuselage is flip, the turtle mode can be activated to reverse the motor
and turn the quadcopter back to the front.
