 UDR: Increase the selected Value (Where the Cursor stands) by 10%
-DDD: Save The selected PIDs to the Quad (note: this also performs an ACC calibration, make sure the quad is levelled at this moment or perform another ACC calibration later)

-For PID tuning, it's highly recommended to use [[:silvervise|SilverVISE]] Android app, where you can see the cursor and also see the PID numbers / changes. For all that don't own an Android device and are interested in the actual numbers, debug mode can be used ( with keil ), where the PIDs can be seen (as decimal numbers!) For all infos how to use the app please click at the link above.

-<font inherit/inherit;;#FF0000;;inherit>Once the PIDs got changed and saved via gestures, they will stay even when you reflash the firmware, given that you //did not change the PIDs in PID.c. //Once these are changed, these will overwrite the PIDs iin flash, so take care while using Debug Mode</font>

+To use debug mode without reflashing the quad, you can do the following:
+In the last tab of the settings ( utilities ) uncheck "update target before debugging"
+Also go to stlink - settings , where the algorithms are, and set "do not erase" , also uncheck program and verify. This way it can't program it even if it tries to. This is just for added safety, the first option should do it but some things one really don't want erased even if it's unlikely. Be aware that this procedure only works if you use the exactly same Silverware version you flashed at the quad, otherwise you may get crappy values (because the values shown are stored in a particular memory section, and only the compiler knows where they are. Therefor, it's standard to reflash the code before using debug mode.
