Angelos,
Not sure if this is possible or needed, but I was wondering if there is any way to use the spare connector on the AP for a failsafe throttle switch, this weekend and in the past I have a very very bad habit of shutting off my transmitter first without unplugging my battery. I like the idea of being able to set the failsafe to 52% on throttle just in case, especially hauling $1000 in equipment.
What would be nice is to have a some sort of switch attached to a small metal rod the come off the skids, so when the copter is on the ground the failsafe gets set to 0 according to the switch, but when its in the air the failsafe can stay at 52%
Just an idea I suppose, I really gotta start paying attention, almost lost 2 fingers trying to tackle my logo this weekend, thankfully I just bruised my knuckles and didn't need stitches =)
