Aux 5 not working on betaflight

[koklimabc]

I'd tried to create GPS recues Mode on Radio's (AUX 10) with Betaflight (AUX 5), but It won't work.

Betaflight seems to be support until channel 4 (AUX 4) and not more.

Below is my Input & Mixer againts betaflight

( Working )
Arm (Radio - AUX 5) - AUX 1 (Betaflight)
Turtle Mode (Radio - Aux 6) - AUX 2 (Betaflight)
Beeper (Radio - Aux 7) - AUX 3 (Betaflight)
Angle & Horizon (Aux 8) - AUX 4 (Betaflight)
RSSI (Radio - AUX 9) - AUX 12 (Betaflight)

( Not Working )
GPS recues mode (Aux 10) - AUX 5 (Betaflight)

I do checking on CLI with get max_aux_channels = 14

FYI, I'm using JHEMCU F722 Flight Controller, does it affected from Flight Controller?

Will try to explain but it is fairly confusing.

First off betaflight doesn't really limit you here the aux channels depend on how many channels beyond 4 your receiver and transmitter support. So if you have a receiver that is 8 channel then you can get 4 regular control channels (throttle, aileron, elevator, rudder) and 4 aux channels. If your receiver supports more channels then you can use them for more aux control.

On the openTX side of things you have inputs that are active that's the first image you show then page right of that is for mixing different inputs then the page after that is for what output is actually sent to the receiver as a result of the first two pages.

Also worth noting you can use different values from one aux channel to activate different modes and can mix switches into a single aux channel so can use more switches with less channels:

Looks like he jb has updated vid related to this:

Yes, you are right and It is all about depending on receiver.

FYI, I'm using Frysky R9 slim plus OTA under FCC type in FLEX FPORT firmware.

I'd done checking from Fryskiy sites and it could supports upto "6/16 channel" with telemetry. What is means?

I do watch from his video before where you need to adjust offset values to get close to each other for under AUX 1.

That say if I do share Turtle's (AUX 6) with GPS rescue mode, is it possible to work?
