Does it now support active switching of backup remote controls? If not, can you add this feature

Now it is possible to input two remote control signals to backup each other. Can we actively switch between the two remote controls through a certain channel switch? If not, can I add this requirement?

Hi @tadiwuh,

AP does support multiple RC receivers although I don’t think we have an auxiliary switch to change the primary. Instead the receiver connected to the IOMCU (e.g. the regular “RC IN” port) is primary but if it stops receiving signals AP will switch to the backup. The backup is normally connected to a serial port I think.

IIRC it will stay in the backup until backup is lost then switch to any available receiver.
