Hand or Catapult Launch Takeoff with QuadPlane (vectored tilt tri plane)

$

Hello, I am having trouble doing a manual takeoff with my tiltrotor aircraft. If I set Q_OPTIONS bit 1, when I enter TakeOff mode, both front engines instantly go up to 100% despite I have set KOFF_ACCEL_CNT=1 and TKOFF_THR_MINACC=12

According to the documentation, Q_OPTIONS bit 1 (+2), if set, will use a fixed wing takeoff instead of a VTOL takeoff for ground stations that can only send TAKEOFF instead of a separate VTOL_TAKEOFF mission command. Otherwise, QuadPlane will use VTOL takeoffs for a TAKEOFF mission command.

I am not sure if this is the right way to do what I want to do. My use case is:
1- I want my quadplane to take off in Normal Takeoff mode (because I use an airplane catapult to reduce battery consumption)
2- Then I do my flight
3- Then I want my quadcopter to come home and land in QLAND mode (because landing in a quadcopter does not consume too much battery and is so much more convenient than a normal landing)

Thanks for any help
