You can verify this on the bench by toggling between stability mode ON and off and observing the swash plate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Stability mode has different trim settings which can only be set correctly by doing a trim flight. You cannot set the stability mode trim on the bench.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Please follow the below instructions carefully to get the Stability mode trim right.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Ensure that you are in a sufficiently large hall. It is very dangerous to do a trim flight in a small room. It is very difficult to do a trim flight outside due to wind. If it is a calm day you could do a trim flight outside as well.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Once powered ON, turn ON Stability mode on the ground. Verify that Red LED is steady.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Pull back Elevator stick for a few seconds till Red LED starts blinking. Now Helicopter is in Trim Learning mode. Observe the Swash plate. If it is too much tilted in one direction be prepared to correct that as helicopter will take off in that direction.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Take off the helicopter and try to hover it at one place. The goal is to get it hovering at one place with as minimum stick in put as possible for a few seconds. When you are able to do this, immediately land the helicopter without giving any more aileron, elevator or rudder inputs.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Once on the ground and throttle is cut, save the trim settings by pulling back the Elevator stick for a few seconds till the Red LED is steady.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>To verify, first take off the helicopter with Stability mode OFF and hover at one place. Turn ON Stability mode while hovering and check that the helicopter is staying at the same place.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>NOTE: A little bit drift is OK. Do not spend too much time to get Stability mode perfect. Instead, spend more time in practice your hovering skills.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Please follow the below video from OMPHobby to set the Stability mode level trim.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"OMBHOBBY M2 Solution to Attitude Drift\" width=\"980\" height=\"551\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/qMdz5uakF9w?start=2&#038;feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The below guide will show you how to configure the M2 Flight controller.
