Passthrough on 3.2.1 working?

I have a mini APM 2.6 running adrucopter 3.2.1 on a quadcopter and 8 channel PPM receiver. I was able to get my Storm32 to tilt using RC11 output paired to Ch6 (3 position) for gimbal tilt control. However, I discovered that during missions, the tilt seems to be locked to whatever tilt angle the mission started at. If I set up a "dronie" using tower, the tilt is moved to full forward position, therefore, missing the "person of interest". I tried to work around this by setting up RC8 output as passthrough, but it doesn't seem to work. If I switch RC8_fucntion to 7 again, tilt control is returned. Couple of questions:

  1. Is tilt locked during mission and dronie?
  2. Does passthrough even work on 3.2.1?

I searched through some topics on this, none really dealt specifically on 3.2.1 and tilt control during mission. Maybe I missed something obvious, but the end goal is to be able to tilt the gimbal at all times freely. I don't mind that the tilt is not part of the mission, as long as I get to control it myself.
