'''As an alternative to using a separate channel for activating the AttitudeControl you can also use the gyro gain channel, i.e. when you only have a 6-channel transmitter or when using a receiver with standard wiring (here we simply can't connect an additional channel physically).''' The activation of AttitudeControl will work quite similar as described above for the separate switch channel. Moving the channel into one direction will activate the AttitudeControl and the amount of deflection of the channel determines the stabilization gain, when moving the gyro channel into the other direction the leveling is disabled. But additionaly here the gyro gain channel also still adjusts the gyro gain. Precisely this happens when the channel is moved in the direction where the leveling is disabled. Here the amount of deflection adjusts the gyro gain and sets the gyro into heading lock mode. So for example you would assign a switch to the gyro gain channel and adjust the throw into one direction to let's say -50% and in the other direction to +60%, resulting in a gyro gain of 50% and a stabilization gain of 60%. By flipping the switch you can activate/deactivate the AttitudeControl instead of toggling the tail gyro between "Normal-Rate" and "HeadingLock" mode. The gyro gain value of -50% will be saved internally when switching into positive direction.<br />

The activation of AttitudeControl is quite similar to the separate switch channel:

* Moving the gyro gain channel into one direction will activate the AttitudeControl, the amount of deflection of the channel determines the stabilization gain

* When moving the gyro channel into the other direction the leveling is disabled.

* Additionaly the gyro gain channel also adjusts the tail gyro gain. Precisely this happens when the channel is moved in the direction where the '''leveling is disabled'''. Here the amount of deflection adjusts the gyro gain and sets the gyro into heading lock mode.

So for example you would assign a switch to the gyro gain channel and adjust the throw into one direction to let's say -50% and in the other direction to +60%, resulting in a tail gyro gain of 50% and an attitude gain of 60%. By flipping the switch you can activate/deactivate the AttitudeControl (instead of toggling the tail gyro between "Normal-Rate" and "HeadingLock" mode). The gyro gain value of -50% will stay fixed when switching into positive direction.<br />

{{WARNING_QUOTE|When using AttitudeControl with combined switch channel make sure AttitudeControl is at least deactivated once before take off. Otherwise the tail gyro gain would be minimal as the system would not have been able to determine your tail gain adjustment after initialization.<br />

[[File:Warning.png|sub|18px]] Also note that in this mode it is absolutely necessary to use a switch that changes the control directions directly and without intermediate steps. In particular, do not use a slider on the transmitter! Otherwise, when you activate AttitudeControl the tail gyro sensitivity would be decreased to 0% before the system turns on the AttitudeControl. So you would have 0% of tail gyro gain when AttitudeControl is active.}}<br />

'''A third alternative is to use the bank switching feature and set the attitude gains fixed for each flight mode.''' In this case the AttitudeControl will be active as long as the flight mode is selected and the Attitude gain is greater than 0%. So you could use one bank/flight mode for hovering and sports flying, one flight mode for 3D aerobatics and a third one with angular mode and 50% gain for rescue bailout or hover training. You can switch between modes using a simple 3-position switch.<br />

Please note that due to the complexity of this feature configuring and enabling bank switching is only possible with the StudioX software or StudioXm app!<br />

If not already done enter PARAMETER MENU by pushing the button briefly when the device is operational, so that the Menu LED next to point A starts to flash. Then repeatedly press the button to skip to Menu LED (menu point) L. At PARAMETER MENU point L you can choose between five different AttitudeControl operation modes. This is done by selection with the rudder stick. Tap the rudder stick repeatedly until the Status-LED lights in the desired color. If one of the AttitudeControl operation modes is selected, the AttitudeControl function is enabled and it can be activated/deactivated in operation by using the previously assigned transmitter channel for AttitudeControl. The "AttitudeControl disabled" option specifies the AttitudeControl is completely disabled and actuating the AttitudeControl channel has no effect (in terms of the AttitudeControl). The assignment to the colors of the Status-LED is as follows:<br />
