Do the switches have labels on? Did you get a manual with the heli? Might be a good place to start if you did.

If you didn't get a manual, click here to download one.

My guess is, if they are marked rudder, aileron and elevator, they are most probably dual rate switches and will reduce the travel of each channels servos accordingly.

d/r = dual rate

Usually one position gives you 100% control surface travel and the other position gives you a reduced travel i.e. 70%

This means you move your servos around less for the amount of stick movements you make and stops you overdoing it as you're learning to control your heli.

OK - this manual does tho, assuming this is the radio you have?
