Title: Failsafe Settings in the Configuration Tab
Post by: lucas on February 17, 2016, 06:32:54 pm

Hi, I was wondering if it could be possible to add the Failsafe settings to the Configuration Tab (Maybe a new tab on the Outputs or Inputs Settings) .  I´m used to setting my desired Failsafe Behaviour on the System Tab, but I think it´s a little hidden over there.

Not a bad idea IMHO.  Feel free to submit a ticket in GitHub.

We use bitbucket, github is only a mirror.
Look into the main page http://www.librepilot.org

I would say not only put a ticket but you can also do the code changes yourself and start a Pull request.

Thanks a lot for the replies guys.

Sadly I can´t code so don´t hold your breath waiting for my PR.

I was just giving you ideas for making LibrePilot more user friendly.  The System Tab may seem a little "scary" for the new users and a few things like Failsafe Settings and the WS2812 Led indicators could have a place in the configurations tab.

As I see it, this days the devs are full of ideas and have all their time full working on them.  But maybe in the future you could have some free time and this ideas may come handy.

PS.  I think LP76 issue (TL autotune) would be a game changer and would attract lots of users.

I have been looking for an excuse to get into the codebase.  I cant promise anything, but if you put in the ticket, I may take a stab at implementing.

Hi, has this been implemented yet? Just wondering if I have an outdated version of the GCS.

It's in the current "next" branch of the software. So you did not miss anything, it's not officially released at the moment, but if you know how to do it, you can try the to compile the next branch from the git (URL in "About"-part of the forum).
