<block key="t" name="Takeoff" strip_button="Takeoff" strip_icon="takeoff.png">
<set value="0" var="kill_throttle"/>
<set value="0" var="estimator_flight_time"/>
<go from="HOME" pitch="-10" throttle="1.0" vmode="throttle" wp="CLIMB"/>
</block>
Explanation of the code - left to right, top to bottom.
key="t" - Not sure what this does - SOMEONE PLEASE UPDATE
name="Takeoff" - the name of the block
strip_button="Takeoff" - This shows as the name when you hover your mouse over the button

<set value="0" var="kill_throttle"/> - This turns on the option to change the throttle
<set value="0" var="estimator_flight_time"/> - This turns on the flight time estimator
<go from="HOME" pitch="-10" throttle="1.0" vmode="throttle" wp="CLIMB"/> - This says for the aircraft to go from "HOME" waypoint towards "CLIMB" waypoint with a pitch of -10 and throttle at 100%. I am not sure what vmode="throttle" means.
