     Throttle is passed directly to control allocation.
     The autopilot controls the attitude, meaning it regulates the roll and pitch angles to zero when the RC sticks are centered, consequently leveling-out the attitude.
     However, in this mode the position of the vehicle is not controlled by the autopilot, hence the position can drift due to wind.
