I have been looking at the failsafe mux for use in a future project, but I have a question before I buy it...can I run the inputs and outputs in reverse (i.e., use the inputs as outputs and vice versa?)
I'm trying to switch a single set of PWM signal
There's a very interesting discussion about UAV imagery processing going on over on the RHOK (Random Hacks Of Kindness) website http://www.rhok.org/problem-definitions/full-list/uavimagery/

Hi,
Is there another way of connecting the IMU to ardupilot other than using the same pins as the FTDI cable?
I don't want to have to disconnect the IMU every time I reprogram the ardupilot.

Looking forward to the release of the IMU board for the Mega and itching to get it ordered and built into my easystar.
I have bought a Openpilot GPS module - great piece of kit and got it working from my PC with no problems.
