uint8 data_source

# Any of the channels may not be available and be set to NaN
# to indicate that it does not contain valid data.

# Stick positions [-1,1]
# on a common RC mode 1/2/3/4 remote/joystick the stick deflection: -1 is down/left, 1 is up/right
# Note: QGC sends throttle/z in range [0,1000] - [0,1]. The MAVLink input conversion [0,1] to [-1,1] is at the moment kept backwards compatible.
# Positive values are generally used for:
float32 roll     # move right,   positive roll rotation,  right side down
float32 pitch    # move forward, negative pitch rotation, nose down
float32 yaw      #               positive yaw rotation,   clockwise when seen top down
float32 throttle # move up,      positive thrust,         -1 is minimum available 0% or -100% +1 is 100% thrust

float32 flaps			 # position of flaps switch/knob/lever [-1, 1]
