Feature Request: Safe Mode #42

Open throttlenerd opened 6 years ago

throttlenerd commented 6 years ago

Hey guys, we need a Q in OSD so if we crash and the drone is far away and flyable (with a help of a Turtle Mode, for instance) -- we lower the Q to, like, 10 and fly home without a strong cause of burning a motor or an ESC. That would be especially useful of the Q is not stock 400 but ~1000.

And what if there could be a "Safe" fly mode on an AUX switch for that purpose? Like, ya know, 1/1k gyro/looptime (or even lower), all gyro/d-term notch filters enabled, Q=10 -- I'm a noob and all the numbers arent exact, but you get the idea -- I want to be able to fly back (even if it is the crappiest flight ever) with a bent prop without smoking the components.

Thanks @kidBrazil )

Interesting idea, I will discuss this with the team and see what they think.
