Simplified Flight Mode Selection #833

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
Programming a TX to mix two channels into the six optimal PWM output bands is a 
challenge.  I would like to see APM monitor two TX switches and, rather than 
mix, interpret one switch as a SHIFT.  I know this would still be accomplished 
by PWM bands, but hitting two bands on one switch and three bands on the other 
switch seems cleaner than mixing six bands on one channel.  Maybe I am missing 
something (newbie=me).

Ex.  APM monitors FMODE and FLAPS switches:

FMODE_0+FLAPS_0=FLIGHTMODE_1
FMODE_0+FLAPS_1=FLIGHTMODE_2
FMODE_0+FLAPS_2=FLIGHTMODE_3

FMODE_1+FLAPS_0=FLIGHTMODE_4
FMODE_1+FLAPS_1=FLIGHTMODE_5
FMODE_1+FLAPS_2=FLIGHTMODE_6
