S Mode
Compared to the C mode,
the S mode provides greater
control support to ensure
safety of the helicopter.
C Mode
This standard flight mode
uses the YACS control to
balance the helicopter's sta-
bility and flying comfort.
A Mode
This mode has less control
support than the C mode,
allowing the operator to
assume more control.

SG Mode
Move the stick only as much as
you wish to fly, and release it to
stop the movement. Thus, this
mode allows you to operate
with peace of mind.
It can be used only for flying
forward or backward.
CG Mode
In addition to the flying charac-
teristics of the C mode, this
mode provides hovering stabil-
ity through GPS control.
AG Mode
In addition to the flying charac-
teristics of the A mode, this
mode provides hovering stabil-
ity that is lower than the CG
mode.
