6 Pos. switch

It would be nice to have a 6 position switch for one Aux channel instead of only 3 positions for the flight modes.
Something like this is used at arducopter http://copter.ardupilot.com/wiki/common-six-modes and it is not to difficult to implement into a RC TX

This would give the ability to switch more flight modes with less RC channels. Otherwise you need a more expansive TX.

It is present in the latest Navi version from Eosbandi. So you could port into your code. But actually you can set the 6 position only with wingui or ez-gui for android, the original multiwiiconf doesn't support it.

thanks for the hint. I found the code from Eosbandi. But I could not find this feature in his wingui

PS: I was a little blind. Of course you have to uncomment in config.h the line
#define EXTENDED_AUX_STATES
and now it works perfectly.
Thanks at Eosbandi

Re: 6 Pos. switch - WinGUI bug

I might have stumbled upon a bug in the WinGUI support for the 6 modes per aux. After saving thhe settings to a file from WinGUI and reloading from that file, some of the settings are moved to the next aux channel. ( I observed it for aux1 and aux2) I assume the 6-mode-settings are not saved to the file correctly?

EZ-GUI also supports it.
