Jim Oddino has something in his column in the last RC Modeler,
relating to Mode I, Mode II and Mode III. What you say? Mode III?
Yes, that is what they are calling it.

In Mode I, elevator and rudder are on the left stick, as if you were
flying a two channel glider, left stick only. Then expand on that,
and add throttle and aileron on the right stick. That is a Mode I
set-up with four channels. Mode II has throttle and rudder left
stick and elevator/aileron on the right stick.

In what they are calling mode III, the throttle/aileron stick is
the left and rudder/elevator on the right. This moves the pitch/roll
functions to two different sticks. They say it is better than the
Mode II that everyone is using. Maybe the 99.9% using II are not
flying their equipment to the best advantage.
