M2P operates as listed in the Manual BUT........

[Deleted member 96430]

Just replaced my left front leg. So had to do a flight check. Wind is 23 MPH. So I put on my 3 blade props and took off. The blades handled the wind great. But the M2P seemed to be maneuvering pretty snappy...
The manual said the M2P starts out in positioning mode. And that is exactly what it was doing. Problem is the SC was in tripod mode. in order to get the M2P to fly in tripod mode I had to move the SC switch to positioning mode the pack to tripod mode to get it to fly that way. Has anyone else experienced this?

Yep, mine does it if I take off in tripod mode.

Thats normal, expected (and documented) behaviour. If the switch is in any other position than P for takeoff you need to return it to P and move it away again to change into that mode.

Yea that’s correct. I’ve identified the parameter in the firmware that does this

g_config_control_default_power_up_control_mode=7

And even have a thread on how to change it to something else if desired

Get ATTI mode w/o giving up Sport or tripod mode (tested!)

Hey everybody I wanted to share a new hack I found to gain the ability to purposely fly in Atti mode without giving up a remote switch spot. This works on Mavic Pro(tested), Mavic Pro Platinum (tested), Mavic 2 (untested but should work), sorry Mavic Air ? I know a lot of people here have...
