Which board (stock / gruvin9x / sky9x / Taranis) are you using?
Taranis

What is your openTx FW version?
latest

What is your openTx EEPROM version?
latest

What steps will reproduce the problem?
no problem, just an idea for improvement.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

Please provide any additional information below.

I would like to have the possibility to have flight modes engage in a linear 
way like a mixer would work. For example, I would map the neutral flight mode 
to the center of the throttle stick, and the "Speed" flight mode with a little 
down elevator trim to forward throttle stick. Then, with the throttle stick at 
+50%, I would get half the down elevator trim, and at full throttle the full 
down elevator trim.
Same would apply to all other flight-mode-specific trims, as flaps, ailerons, 
etc.
The flight modes should still be able to be trimmed separately. So, if I have 
the Throttle stick around the neutral position (-30 to +30%), then any trim 
changes with the little trimmer knobs would refer to the neutral flight mode. 
If I have the throttle stick from +30 to +100%, the trims would act on the 
"Speed" flight mode.
This way, the flight modes can be easily accessed with a proportional channel, 
they can themselves be used proportionally, and they can be individually 
trimmed.

So, each flight mode should have a setting about how it is switched on or off 
(switch, or proportional input) and a setting about a condition in which the 
trims made on the trimmer knobs act on this flight mode (for example Throttle 
stick +30% to +100%).

Sorry, this appears as "defect". I never chose "defect" somewhere...
