New to Arduplane, but is there a way to remap the servo output pin to another channel? I’m using ELRS and I’d like to use the 5th output pin.
Thanks!

SEROVx_FUNCTION can be set to whatever you want. Move what’s on #5 to whatever channel works for you. The servo output has nothing to do with your radio input channels, so it doesn’t matter that you’re using ELRS.

@Allister - Thanks for the quick response! Ok - what’s the relationship between RCX_OPTION and SERVOX_FUNCTION?
RC OPTION is for your rc inputs, SERVO function is for the outputs.
I’m guessing you have an RC plane background. To expand on @geofrancis, The RCx_OPTION is for the input and dictates things like roll, pitch, throttle, yaw input to the flight controller. The SERVOx_FUNCTION allows you to set what output drives the ailerons, elevators, motor, and rudder. The input channel and the output don’t need to match. The RC input for ailerons might be RC1, but you can have the aileron servo connected to SERVO6. You can have multiples of the same outputs. If you are using non-conventional configurations like elevons then you set the SERVOx_FUNCTION for elevon, but the RC inputs are still roll, pitch, etc. Even in manual mode, the flight controller does all the work. And most important: No mixes on the radio and no trim on the radio.
