What is the difference between mode 1 and 2?? I'm looking at getting a 6-channel radio, but it says its not compatable with mode 1.
Mode 1 is used mainly outside the USA (it's mode 2 exclusively in the US).
Mode 2 assigns throttle and rudder to the left stick, with ailerons and elevator to the right stick.
Mode 1 has elevator and rudder on the left stick, and throttle and ailerons on the right stick.
In other words, the throttle and elevators have been switched with each other.
Other than that, I wouldn't worry about it.
