Alternatively, you can set the power to “Arcade” mode, which simplifies the power on procedure to just the main breakers. There is also an Arcade setting for steering that utilizes the controllers in the same way as a racing game would instead of using the control yoke.

As always, if you have any questions, comments, feedback, or suggestions; please join our Discord channel. Info for it can be found on the community page for Lunar Odyssey!
