 - ``axes``: definition of the list of axes. The allowed values are "ws", "ad", "up_down" and "left_right". It is possible to select the default sign for an axis prepending a "+" or a "-" to the axis name. For example, "+ws" will set the "ws" axis with the default sign, while "-ws" will set the "ws" axis with the inverted sign. It is also possible to repeat some axis, and use "none" or "" to have dummy axes with always zero value. The order matters. (default: ("ad", "ws", "left_right", "up_down"))
