Feature: dynamic gimbal setup (Stick-Mode, Reverse)

[shadow974]

It seems that the Turnigy Evolution is delivered in several combinations of Stick-Modes where the gimbals are just swapped and rotated. I don't know, how this is done with the fs-i6s.

There are two ways to get every combination solved:

1. preconfigured Input-Mappings with a Menu für the User
2. dynamic mapping while calibrating the sticks (like in most of the FPV-simulators out there)

For the second option i tought about a step-driven calibration routine:

• All Sticks to middle, wait for User interaction (klick go!)
• "Please move throttle-stick to full throttle" (wait for ADC change with timeout) (getting which stick is moved, the max endpoint and if we need to invert)
• Please move throttle-stick to zero throttle" (getting the min-value)
• repeat for the other sticks

any pro's or contra's?

Im trying to implement it in my own fork (for learning C, of course :) )

Good idea. Maybe it would be more simple like this: 1) ask the user to center all sticks and press a button 2) ask the user to move to all extrema and then put both sticks to the upper right corner and press a button.

This assumes left and right stick are never swapped, or are they?

I think they are swapped. Mine came in Mode-1 already, so the mapping in the original branch was false. It seems that there are no pins for the neutralization spring on the throttle gimbal. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o9QNUzk90YY

So they are swapped and rotated by 180° to let the cables come out in the middle... If you ask the user every step, it takes longer, yes, but you only do this once...
