The way I understand it is as follows:
Normal or 3D flight switches 10, 11 & 12 are off. 10, 11 & 12 are for programming only. You're correct about switching on only one at a time.

DS 10 adjusts the pitch curve with the V1 knob on the right, next to the flight mode switch. It is marked V1 and should only be adjusted with the flight mode switched to "N". (DO NOT trust what the book says about the color the lights turn to on the Tx)
This will adjust when pitch is introduced (pitch curve) as the throttle is increased in the normal mode. (More pitch before 50% throttle for a lower RPM or after 50% throttle for higher RPM). The pitch curve when the Tx is in flight mode "1" (idle-up 1) is not adjustable and is totally linear (the left stick will control collective to pitch limits preset by user).
Pitch Range (limits) is controlled with the V2 knob on the left side of the Tx, next to the gear switch. It is marked V2. Clockwise to increase, counter-clockwise to decrease. When you are finished with your adjustment be sure to turn the dip switch to off before anything else to save your settings.

DS 11 is for the throttle curve and is adjustable only with the V1 knob on the right, next to the flight mode switch. This is adjustable for both flight modes (normal & idle-up 1).

DS 12 is for the gyro. It is adjustable with only the V2 knob on the left, next to the gear switch. This controls the percentage of gain you wish to use and also turns off or on the heading lock mode. If the red LED is on steady after initialization, heading lock is on. I think you need more than 70% gain for it to be on.

Hope this helps! ('cuz it's all I know on the subject!)

There are no errors or accidents... they're called "Expenses".

I got a metal head for this from a place in Hong Kong.
Was for a Walkera 36 which is the same thing.
This metal head is strange. No dampener grommet things. The head is rigid.
Is that normal for a metal head for this type of heli?
This seems abnormal.

The one I have does have dampners and I thought they all need dampners.

If this does have any rubber in it, it sure is tight.
Mine also kinda clicks as I rotate the blades. Kinda like a cheap bearing or maybe something is too tight.
The ebay seller listed the parts right out of the Walkera 36 metal head part list.

I noticed that my grips on my metal head seemed a little notchy too. I loosened them up a little and they got smoother but I never fully got rid of the notchiness until I replaced the bearings. Try the bearings out of the plastic head, I think they'll fit. Xheli has bearings real cheap.

Took mine apart. Yes, there are head dampeners. It does come a bit tight and I think the notchy ness is only 1 of the 4 bearings. I'll try swapping them out when I put the metal head in. I'm gonna fly it stock some before I put the metal head in. Not in a hurry.
