	RC rate: defines the sensibility of the multicopter for PITCH and ROLL RC stick. If you feel your multi too reactive, decrease it. If you want to improve its responsiveness, increase this parameter.		RC rate: defines the sensibility of the multicopter for PITCH and ROLL RC stick. If you feel your multi too reactive, decrease it.

	RC expo: defines a smoother zone at the center of PITC and ROLL RC stick. With this function, it’s possible to have both a good precision and a good amplitude.<br>		RC expo: defines a smoother zone at the center of PITC and ROLL RC stick.
