Lost on failsafe!!I

I'm using latest arduplane firmware and planner and have downloaded and Write Params to my APM1.x installed in a skywalker.

Now I want to make sure I understand failsafe but the directions seems confusing.

Here talks about it but doesn't say what parameters such as FS_SHORT_ATN, etc need to be set. In the downloaded skywalker parameter file they came as 0 in most of the ones related to failsafe.

Here the various parameters associated with failsafe say it should be set to 1

So how exactly should these be set to have the default behavior of circling for 20 seconds and then RTL.

FS_GCS_ENABL ?

FS_LONG_ACTN ?

FS_SHORT_ACTN ?

THR_FAILSAFE ?

any other ones I need to set and should all these be set to 1?
