Release 1.7

[athertop]

This release 1.7 has several updates including: written for the latest FrSkySportTelemetry library (included in zip format in this repo). Includes support for Ultimate LRS, including:

• sensor polling (used where the Teensy is not connected to a FrSky X series Rx - I.e. connected directly to Taranis module bay s.port pin, receiving mavlink stream natively from the Tx module - such as is the case using an Ultimate LRS Tx module)
• mavlink based RSSI display (sends mavlink RxRSSI to the A3 sensor (and 0 to A4). LUA screen will automatically display this in place of regular RSSI where the teensy code is configured with: #define USE_MAV_RSSI Tested in the following 3 configurations:
• Teensy connected in standard configuration - I.e. connected to FrSky X series Rx which polls teensy for sensor data, installed in model listening to mavlink messages from the Pixhawk/APM Telemetry port (using standard FrSky RSSI)
• Teensy connected in a ground station repeater - I.e. Teensy installed in a repeater enclosure on the ground listening to Mavlink messages coming from the serial port of a ULRS Tx installed in the same enclosure. Teensy output connected to s.port of X4R Rx in this same enclosure. X4R polls the Teensy for s.port telemetry sensor data (using mavlink RSSI, and no polling)
• Teensy connected directly to a ULRS Tx connected directly to Taranis module bay in PPM mode - I.e. Teensy collects Mavlink from ULRS Tx serial port, and provides its own polling requests, sending s.port telemetry sensor data into the s.port pin within the Taranis module bay (uses both polling and mavlink RSSI in this configuration).
