Channel 7 to Calibrate Throttle ??

Just connect your receiver output ch7 to input ch7 and use a on - off switch or better a momentary switch on the transmitter.

I'm not sure it is actually enabled in the code because some users did fly with Ch7 high without knowing it. This caused problems.

Here is the informations you can read in the readme file :

"ch7 = use to set throttle hold value while hovering (quick toggle), hold to trim in air values - don't use your radio's trims!"

You can read this as well inside ArducopterMega.pde file :

"7 = trainer switch - sets throttle nominal (toggle switch), sets accels to Level (hold > 1 second)"

I'd like to have more informations about this toy as well.

That is outdated info. The CH7 calibration is no longer necessary. Just follow the manual (we'll change the old read-me)
