"Im using a 5000mah turnigy 40c 2s lipo and get brownouts at high throttle starts on my brushless slash when the battery isn't fully charged. I got around this by powering the pixhawk on a smaller 1700mah 2s lipo."

I am looking over the start stop switch wiring documentation. It says to use A0-A8 for the apm. But i cant figure out what that would correlate to for the pixhawk. Any help or pointing to where I can find this info would be appreciated.
