Template Sticky Throttle-Cut doesn't work

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Which board (stock / gruvin9x / sky9x) are you using?
Stock with Atmega128
Open9x latest SVN

The sticky throttle-cut template doesn't work.
To make it work properly we must correct the custom switch CSC and CSB
On CSC must invert the logic signal from v1>x to v1<x and choose CH14 instead 
of PPM4 (obviously something messed this up here) :p
On CSB must invert the logic signal from v1<x to v1>x
On the mixer menu on CH14 THR must be changed to !THR.

With these changes I was able to make it work the way it should..

Better you check all the other templates also. they could have been messed up 
for the same reason as the T-Cut was..

Sorry guys, I've been asked to find bugs and I come from a family of hunters :D

Thank you very much for the time you all put on this so we can play with our 
toys safely :)

Hmmm, I think it's still not working as it should.. I mean, the sticky t-cut 
itself works, but the switch is reversed. I think the motor should NOT run with 
the switch to the back at it's default position. and  it runs, and then it cuts 
when you flick it. 
So, the operation is reversed.. Could be dangerous.

i am not sure if it is safe, to reverse the THR operation in T-Cut and 
StickyT-Cut. 
because it is this way from beginning of all 9x projects.

in this case i highly recommend to manually (if someone need) to change THR 
switch in CH14 to !THR

well, it wasn't like this before some changes made lately.  I had it working 
and it was working correctly.. the THR switch from factory defaults to the back 
and this is the position the T-Cut should be active and the motor disabled.. if 
when you turn your radio on the throttle is active then it can be dangerous and 
that is what is happening now.. before it worked as it should.. Some changes 
might have thrown the templates out of whack. That's why I mentioned that all 
the other templates should be checked :)

ok. i tried in er9x and also in ersky. it is in current way.

do you take this change on yourself? I do not! Lot of fingers :) 

bdw: default flying position is all switches back (if something goes wrong 
quickly switch everything to back) 
if there is a need to use t-cut on TX power up, we can set inverted TRH switch 
warning.

Well, the radio tells you to turn the switch off at startup as it's default 
position.. I would expect that to be the safe position, and not the posiiton 
where the motor will run.. it's DANGEROUS. 
I can't do anything else but warn for this, which i did.. 
I wash my hands from it now.. I won't have any cut fingers or worse on my 
conscience.. :)

I just flashed the release version with templates to my radio, and yes it's 
always been THR ON to activate T-CUT. What jhsa saw was likely because of the 
broken template.

yeah, I just checked eepe and companion. they've all been wrong since the 
beginning.. By default the radio tells you to put the THR switch to the back. 
this should be the safe setting. And the motor should NOT start running with 
the switch in that position.
if the motor is on you turn the radio on, turn the model on, for some reason 
hit the throttle stick, you will have a model out of control in your hands. 
literally..
Anyway, I know I'm safe. feel sorry for the ones who don't :)
As far as I'm concerned, case closed..
