Propeller positioning

The positioning function allows the motor/propeller to be rotated to the exact position required for a safe landing or just convenient for the next flight. With a few external components (a Hall sensor and a small magnet) you can use this function and avoid the risk of damaging the propeller during landing. The magnet must be properly attached to the rotating part (motor or propeller) and the Hall sensor must be positioned in the fuselage so that the magnet is opposite the Hall sensor at the target position of the propeller. After enabling the positioning function via the controller menu (Propeller Position = "Hall Sensor"), also set the PWM positioning so that the motor spins slowly but smoothly. You can also change the duration of the actively held motor position (Position Hold), which is activated when the correct position is found. The Position Hold feature is useful in retractable propulsion because it prevents the propeller from moving spontaneously during retraction.
