DShot for the horizontal motor

Hi,
I’m successfully flying my build of the SkyHunter 1800 in the vertical mode. The only issue is that the motors are installed on the tail booms and their extensions, and I had to mount the engines tilting forwards much more than the 5 deg adviced in the docs in order for the plane not to fly backwards. Do you need to have a successful QLoiter in order to perform a safe transition, or you can call it from QStabilize?

Now I’m starting to mount the horizontal motor and select an ESC for it. I prefer the DShot protocol, as there is no calibration and the telemetry is provided. I run the vertical motors in the DShot mode, and I fly another conventional plane with twin motors also controlled by DShot. But I remember I’ve read somewhere in the docs that the horizontal motor in the QuadPlane can be only PWM. Is this true?
