QTILTMASK=3
The tilt-motor selection uses a bitmask value. Set the value to 3.
Flight Mode Setup
Open the flight mode settings and select the required modes from the drop-down menus according to your preferences. For initial tilt testing, we recommend configuring only VTOL Stabilize and fixed-wing Stabilize.
By default, flight modes are assigned to channel 8. If you use a three-position switch, set Flight Mode 1 and Flight Mode 2 to the same mode. The following flight mode configuration is provided for reference only.
