+	RC Input : PPM signal on IC4 pin
+	RC Output : 11 Servo outputs (standard 20ms frame)
+
+	Methods:
+		Init() : Initialization of interrupts an Timers
+		OutpuCh(ch,pwm) : Output value to servos (range : 900-2100us) ch=0..10
+		InputCh(ch) : Read a channel input value.  ch=0..7
+		GetState() : Returns the state of the input. 1 => New radio frame to process
+		             Automatically resets when we call InputCh to read channels
