+    Quadplane log rate control
+
+    This script gives additional control over the logging parameters depending
+    on if the aircraft is in forward flight or in hover. This allows high rate
+    logging for control analysis in hover, and a much lower rate for forward
+    flight to save space on the SD card.

+# Quadplane Log Rate Control
+
+This Lua script for ArduPilot provides enhanced control over logging parameters
+based on whether the quadplane is in forward flight or hover mode. This allows
+for high-rate logging for detailed control analysis during hover and a lower
+rate during forward flight to conserve space on the SD card.
+
+This breaks out the existing `LOG_BITMASK` and `LOG_FILE_RATEMAX` parameters
+into two pairs: one for forward flight and one for hover. The script then
+automatically switches between the two pairs based on the current flight mode.
+
+## Parameters
+
+### Q_LOG_MASK_FF
+Loaded into `LOG_BITMASK` when in forward flight.
+
+### Q_LOG_MASK_HV
+Loaded into `LOG_BITMASK` when in hover.
+
+### Q_LOG_RATEMAX_FF
+Loaded into `LOG_FILE_RATEMAX` when in forward flight.
+
+### Q_LOG_RATEMAX_HV
+Loaded into `LOG_FILE_RATEMAX` when in hover.
