[FEATURE] r1685-only_allow_arm_with_gps_3dfix.patch
This patch adds a new feature:
When ONLY_ALLOW_ARM_WITH_GPS_3DFIX is set the FC will only allow arming if the GPS has a 3D fix.

Note: I did actual live functionality test and everything is working as intended, nevertheless please report back your findings.

I can't test it ATM, but what happens, when I loose GPS-fix during flight? Will it keep being armed?
[FEATURE] r1685-only_allow_arm_with_gps_3dfix.patch
Yes it will keep flying.

Hi,
The patch is applied without option: in this context I think it's a wise idea to not allow arm in any case if a gps is intended to be used.

Hi Alex,
can you make it optional by GUI? Sometimes I'm flying indoor with no GPS-fix possible. With this
patch its impossible to change indoor/outdoor location without flashing a new sketch.

I agree that would be nice that we could disable the check of 3dfix before arming also. Sometime we just don't want to use the GPS, only fly around indoor or even outdoor. Thank you.
Re: [FEATURE] r1685-only_allow_arm_with_gps_3dfix.patch
Agree with last two?... Prefer an option to disable

ok ok, so I re add the #define option.
there are options that are not really one because 99% with use it (the reason I did not include it), but here apparently this is not the case

Maybe you can make it on/ off via MSP? It will make more sense that way.

How about when the option is active if you do try to arm the first time without 3DF it will refuse but if you try to arm it again it will engage ? Like a override.
Having a 3DF when arming is getting more important has the fw evolves into GPS based navigation and RTH failsafe. People may not have good experiences if the do not get good coords on the home location.
But indeed we cannot ask people to reflash the fw every time they switch from indoor to outdoor, nor we can ask them to have a Bluetooth module and an android laying around. There should be a "mechanical" way to override the condition.

New to the forum but been reading it for a while. i like this idea what about a stick combo to arm it in 3d fix mode. should be pretty easy to implement.
option 1 arm like normal
option 2 if gps enabled and you go full pitch (for example) arms in 3d fix mode or refuses
