I understand that, in autonomous mode, the ruder is controlled by the CPU.But in radio mode how the ruder is controlled? Is a 3 pin switch, 2 positions, used with a extra channel (autonomous/radio mode)? or the pilot simply don't have rudder control on radio mode?

In the Lego UAV, the rudder is controlled as usual by the RC transmitter (the lego motor moves the entire servo back and forth, but doesn't control the rotation of its arm.
In the cellphone UAV, the pilot does not have control of the rudder in radio mode.
In the BASIC Stamp UAV, the CPU hands off control of the rudder and elevator back to the RC controller when the autopilot is disengaged.
