PPM sync detection is bellow max channel pulse width

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. use TX with PPM pulse greater than 2000 ms
2. when channel is set to max, PPM interrupt discard the full frame because it 
thinks it is a sync pulse.

How to fix:

Increase sync above MAX_PULSEWIDTH (2100)
