Cannot start with sticks

[jayefs]

I have been flying my MPP for some time now and starting the rotors by pulling the two sticks inwards and downwards - but - all of a sudden I cannot start the MPP this way - I have to start it by pressing the "hover to 1.2 metres button" and stop it by pressing the RTH button so it stops the rotors when landing.

What has changed and how do I fix it?

My first thought would be to recalibrate the RC to see if that fixes the problem.

I had the same Problem with my mode4. Switch to Mode1 or 2 on your RC

Thank you for your suggestion - how do I do that?

Thank you for your suggestion but I want to use the "custom" option as I can set it up to fly more like I have been doing with my model aircraft for over 50 years (right stick forward and turn)
I have been using the "custom" setting for the last 6 months and it is only since I updated a couple of days ago that I have the problem

Mixing up tidbits from this thread - you might want to try switching from custom to mode 2, then back again. The firmware update you mentioned might need the controller to be reset (in some way). I'd try the two-stick CSC takeoff using mode 2, then land, shut everything down and reset to custom. It seems counterintuitive ~but "tickling" the settings may get you back on track.
