Racing

Failsafe with d4r-ii
- It's very very important to set the failsafe of the d4r-ii correctly
- By default it'll retain the last value of all channels, thus contuying on its course and prevent the fc to enter failsafe
- Procedure:
- Bind the receiver (bind mode on tx, turn on rx with the button pressed, turn off everything)
- turn on the rx only, press the button once
