PPM channel mapping?

I have a 6 channel PPM receiver that I have connected to my pixhawk. I understand you can map channel 1 to 4 but I need to map channel 6 to 7.

I have no use for the options that come on channel 6 but channel 7 has auto tune and I need to trigger it.

Is there any way to map channels that are above channel 4?

    • No the problem is I only have a 6 channel transimtter so I cant map channel 6 to 7 through transmitter .

      • There is an outstanding item for RCMAP to be extended....  Have a look at the bug list and it should tell you what's its status is.

        • Thanks chris. I remember reading something about it some time ago.
