Note, PID profile doesn't exist. It should be Control profile instead. I see this error exists all over this document.


2. **Switch to Multicopter/Tricopter:**
- Assuming that you have set up your mixer similar to STEP1 and STEP2, you can now switch to the tricopter/multicopter mode and your servos should be tilting the motors upwards. If this is not the case, reverse the servo(s) in the Outputs tab such that the servo(s) is/are pointed upwards.
- It is OK for the servos not to point exactly 90 degrees upwards, but they should be as close as possible to that position.
- Also, ensure that your MAX values in the Mixer tab are at 100 and -100, so that your servo will move to the maximum position, as shown in the screenshots in STEP1 and STEP2.

3. **Adjust the maximum throws for the Multicopter/Tricopter mode:**
- While in tricopter mode, go to the Outputs tab and adjust the endpoints MIN and MAX values such that when your motors are pointed slightly backwards.
- While in tricopter mode, go to the Outputs tab and adjust the endpoints MIN and MAX values so your motors are pointed slightly backwards.

You've changed STEP1 to STEP 1. But the other steps remain without a space. There are also parts in the document that refer to STEP1 where the space hasn't been added. I don't mind if it has the space or not. But it should be consistent throughout the document.
