Very often after reboot i loose throttle (radio CH3). Inside Radio test, throtle stay at 0.
Board resetting does not solve the problem.
Only a power off solve the problem.
To be sure that my receiver was not faulty, i've connected a servo on receiver output 3, just after i get the problem.
The servo is working perfectly so i'm sure it's not a receiver problem.
I have an APM 2560 board.
Any idea ? Could be a PPM encoder firmware problem ?

Nobody has the same problem ?
I did more tests, and i notified that :
- Sometimes (quite rarely, only three times) i loosed CH4.
- The value i get inside radio test for CH3 is the value seen before the board reset, can be different from 0.
- Loosing CH3 or 4 occur after APM board reset, manual reset or through Megaplanner resets (USB connection, megaplanner mode change.)
- This problem occur even if not connected through USB port
- Reseting the APM board does not solve the problem. Only power off solve the problem.
- Sometimes i can get CH3 to life powering off and powering on the transmitter.
When CH3 or 4 is dead, i see no input change in Radio or PWM test for CH3 (or 4). But radio receiver output is fine, because if i connect a servo i can see it working normaly.
Is the PPM encoder resetted by the IMU reset button ?
I suspect a problem with the PPM encoder code. Where can i get it ? I have a 2560 board i bought at Diydrone store.
