RC_NUM_CHN - Switch to 8 channels by default #120

Closed davidcGIThub closed 4 years ago

davidcGIThub commented 4 years ago

The RC_NUM_CHN is 6 by default. I think it makes more sense to make this 8 by default since most RC controllers have a min of 8 channels. Also the reason this came up was because I was trying to set the ARM_CHANNEL to 7. The ARM_CHANNEL parameter was successfully changed but the ARM switch was not mapped. However there was no error telling me why this was the case. So it would also be helpful to have an error message telling you that the mapping was not successful and why.

Thanks

Thanks @davidcGIThub! This is a firmware issue, so I've opened rosflight/firmware#392 to replace this issue.
