Fail-safe memory

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Which board (stock / gruvin9x / sky9x / Taranis) are you using?

Global

Please provide any additional information below.

I got idea about this feature when want setup failsafe easily and in short 
time. The best way how to setup failsafe is try with aircraft the setting and 
remember it (stick and switch positions) and then simulate it on the ground and 
program it to RX, but this can be complicated and not exact.

This feature should help memory the channel values when fly and then simulate 
it on the ground to easily learn RX.

This was already discussed and rejected in the past, at least for stock board 
as this would require a ton of EEPROM memory to store 2 bytes * 16 channels.

It could be considered on ARM and especially on Taranis as we already have 
failsafe memory available. 2 new custom functions ("Store Failsafes" and 
"Replay Failsafes") could be useful and would be easy to implement.

Would be handy mainly for beginners and sophisticated models as well

Absolutely useless as already discussed as you cannot know how is your model 
set when you enter fail safe, and unless your model is autostable is impossible 
to enter automagically in any stable flying condition,
The only safe condition then is engine off full elevator full rudder and 
ailerons to enter in spin as we do not want the model to travel by himself.

Not all fly acrobatics, FPV users would like to softly land with expensive 
devicees and their models are ususaly in linear fly as well as FPV copters

If you have a FPV system with a decent auto-stabilization system and RTH you 
don't need to set single channels to enter failsafe

Ok lets not open discuss here about it there is forum for this, I got idea to 
easily set failsafe this way, lets developers decide to add or not it as 
comfort function that some users can help... not sure if there are some radios 
with this function but why not have it...

Following Romolo's standpoint, because if this was made easy it would encourage 
people who don't know what they do to use it and think it's good. 

As said on the forum it's already possible using GVars and / or alternate 
mixers for those who really want to do it.
