I've been trying for about a week now to get Hybrid mode to work (3.2 rc3) and it switches to the mode according to mission planner however it seems to be just like AltHold - it drifts with the wind but will hold altitude. Loiter works great and so do the other auto modes including RTL and land. If its any connection, I can't get auto tune to engage either.

Just an update to this, I finally was able to test this in a large open area and poshold is in fact working however it takes it will drift for a while before entering loiter. This of course, defeats the purpose as you have to wait a good 7-10 seconds after coming to a stop for it to slowly brake and enter a loiter. On my Taranis, I can watch the input channels and confirm that they remain a fixed 1500 pwm when sticks are centered (worse case, it'll go to 1499 or 1501). Pure loiter mode works flawless and will hold a very steady position.
Same here (3.2 RC3) on APM 2.52. All modes working fine including Loiter. Hybrid (now PosHold) not holding position. Auto-Tune working very "sporadic" - sometimes almost a minute between iterations, see attached log (switched by C8). Was unable to disarm in autotune mode, however it may not even have had finished by then
