@rmackay9
I have testing AC 4.3.7 for agriculture drone and found that spinner won’t stop even sprayer pump was set low ( pump was off).

This is my setup
Servox_ Function = sprayer pump(22)
Servox_ Function = sprayer spinner (23)
Rcx_ function = 15 ( spray pump)

Spary enable= 1
Spray_ Spinner= 1300.

When i start pump using RC switch spinner also starts rotate but whereas when i switch off the pump spinner doesn’t stop and keep running at constant speed until reboot the drone completely. How to stop spinner when pump aslo stops?

I see these related parameters:

RC8_OPTION,15 // sprayer on/off pilot control

SERVO9_FUNCTION,22  //  pump
SERVO9_MAX,1900
SERVO9_MIN,1100
SERVO9_REVERSED,0
SERVO9_TRIM,1500

SERVO11_FUNCTION,23  //  spinner
SERVO11_MAX,1900
SERVO11_MIN,1100
SERVO11_REVERSED,0
SERVO11_TRIM,1500

SPRAY_ENABLE,1
SPRAY_PUMP_MIN,0
SPRAY_PUMP_RATE,40
SPRAY_SPEED_MIN,1
SPRAY_SPINNER,1500

I would try setting
SERVO11_TRIM,1100
or lower, to 1000, to see if that makes the spinner turn off when the pump is not active. I think it will be defaulting to the TRIM PWM value when not actively set to something else.
