After setting and selecting the custom stick mode, the motor won't start when using the Combination Stick Command .  Also, after launching the drone with the GO app, neither of the 2 sticks provides any control.

In fact, all I wanted is to use the right stick to drive forward/backward and turn; and left stick for elevation changes and left/right moves.  It is like mode 1, but having left and right sticks swapped.  Since only the left stick has the lock position, the current mode 1 doesn't work well for landing the drone...

Thanks for your help.  Yes, I want to put yaw to the right stick and banking to the left.  Tried reboot, but the custom mode is still not working.  Switching back to model 1 & 2, the control works right away without the need of rebooting.

Ok I just tested exactly what u wanted and it works fine. Choose custom and then drag the controls that u want to the corresponding sticks, hit save.

Ok, thx a lot!  I sure arranged the icons as I wanted and clicked save.  I can see the stick setting was stored if I go back to the custom setting.   But controller just doesn't work for me...  

Oh well.  I can live with mode 2 I guess.  I do hope DJI can make mode 1 the way I wanted in the next firmware update, as elevation shall be on the left stick, which has lock position...

that is strange, it worked flawlessly for me.
are u sure that after having saved the custom mode you are actually selecting it? i had to tap on the top right corner og the custom mode to get the blue check mark to appear. until you see the blue check mark next to the custom mode it is not selected!!!

It is indeed strange.  I did see the check mark beside the custom mode.  In fact, I can select mode 2 to launch the drone, switch to the custom mode during the flight, then the RC loses all the controls.  Switching to other modes works.

I also tested on both android app and iOS app (on iPad), neither works.  Now I wonder if it is firmware problem.  Mine is 1.0.20.  Looked online, but didn't see any firmware update for standard version...

Hi there, I have the same problem on my P3S. Maybe anybody knows how to fix this. Has it to do with switch 1?

The problem is still not solved.  Hopefully, DJI will take note and fix the bug with a firmware update.  In fact, I would suggest them to swap the functions of the two sticks in mode 1...

This is to confirm that the new firmware 1.1.30 fixed the custom stick mode problem.

Way to go, DJI!
