Syma X5C flight modes

[Jimbir]

What is the difference between mode 1 and mode 2 on this copter? The "manual" is of no help.
Thanks. Jim B.

Mode 1 and 2 is essentially what control sticks function on what side of the radio...Mode 1 would generally have the throttle stick on the right side and mode 2 on the left...Something about it being reversed with the syma..so if the throttle is on the left this should be mode 2 but its in mode one...lol

Oh, thank you. My throttle in on the left side. I'm going to change the mode on the xmitter to 2. If that puts the throttle on the right side, I'll know I'm in mode 1. I'll change back to mode 1 which will put the throttle back on the left side (which I prefer) and know I'm in mode 2.

Lol...you gotta love the inexpensive toy quads.

 

[Jimbir]

Yeah. always good for a laugh.

 

[Mike H.]

Did you figure it out?

 

[Jimbir]

Windy today. No flying. Will get back to you.

OK. mode 1 is throttle and rudder on left stick, forward, rearward, and sideways on the right stick.
mode 2 is throttle and sideways on the left stick, forward, rearward, and rudder on the right stick. Very inconvenient. I will keep flying in mode 1.
