Hey guys, I'm sure this has been asked somewhere else. But I'm just wondering what are the benefits of Mode 1 compared to Mode 2?
Here in Australia it seems Mode 1 is by far the most popular (from my internet research), where as in the US Mode 2 is more popular.
To me the idea of Mode 2 makes more sence, as once you set you throttle, if its a bank and yank you can fly with just one hand.
Just wondering what your opinions are on the subject? Have any of you started on one mode and moved across to another?
When I first tried flying about 6 years ago (i failed miserably, see my other thread in the not quite flite forum for details) I bought a Mode2 tx from a guy at the field, and he was the only other one there who wasn't on mode 1, I'm thinking of getting back into flying (hence i'm here) not sure if I should keep my tx as Mode 2 or should i change it to mode 1?
Thoughts?
