# Control groups

ARM / DISARM

ARM is an explicit command; low throttle alone does not toggle ARM state.

Throttle & attitude

Normal motor output begins only after the firmware-side low-throttle safety conditions are satisfied.

Beginner / Advanced

User control profiles exposed by the v1 application.

Head Lock

Heading-relative control support exposed by compatible Firmware v1.0.0.

# Assisted Takeoff / Landing

Takeoff and Landing workflows depend on compatible firmware and, for altitude assistance, fresh valid VL53L0X range data. Do not assume these commands are available on every hardware build.

LANDING ERRATA

For the validated v1.0.0 baseline, the Application ramps visible throttle from 1500 toward 1050 over about 3 seconds during the corrected assisted-Landing flow.
