The above failsafe values will kick in only if the servo inputs are lost which cannot happen with a receiver with dsp processing that provides "hold" or "failsafe" features. If the receiver only provides "hold" on the last good servo signals received it is not suitable for use with the Paparazzi autopilot as it will prohibit the autopilot entering the "AUTO2" or "HOME" mode. If you use a receiver with failsafe ability then remember to set the failsafe value of the receiver to 2000 microseconds for the "MODE" channel so the autopilot can go to "AUTO2" or "HOME" mode when the receiver loose the tx signal. The servo signals on receivers like PCM, IPD and any receiver with servo hold AND failsafe will not stop outputing servo pulses thus the encoder will never stop producing a PPM pulse train except if the throttle channel is used as an indication by setting the "RC_LOST_CHANNEL" to a value above 0. If you use the throttle channel as an indication that the TX signal is lost then: RC_USE_FAILSAFE set to 0 means that the ppm output will be shut down and if you set RC_USE_FAILSAFE to 1 the ppm output will NOT shut down but it will now output the failsafe values defined above. */ #define RC_USE_FAILSAFE 1 /* The channel number (1,2,3...7,8) that will be used as a receiver ready indicator. If set above 0 then this channel should be always connected otherwise the PPM output will not be enabled as the ppm encoder will wait for ever for this channel to produce a valid servo pulse. If 0 then the first connected channel going from channel 1 to 8 will be used, in other words which ever connected channel comes on first it will indicate that the receiver is operational. The detection of all connected channels is independent of this setting, this channel is used as an indication that the receiver is up and running only.
