"I have tried the latest and I also had a problem moving the Quad in Loiter. I was a lttle scared the first time it happened there was very little  response to pitch or roll. Full left on the stick the quad would barely move."

"Tanks to the OP for this. I got it to work for all 6 modes. The only thing I changed was instead of -85% in MIX 2 I dropped it to -50% and I get all 6 flight modes on channel 5
