Default number of channels for IBUS in config.h is 14 (successfully tested with Flysky fs-I6AB and RX2A).

## Configuration/Parameters
Ibus control is reusing some of the USART control parameters.<br>
Use CONTROL_SERIAL_USART3 and FEEDBACK_SERIAL_USART3 for the right sensor cable(default), or CONTROL_SERIAL_USART2 and FEEDBACK_SERIAL_USART2 for left sensor cable.<br>
IBUS_NUM_CHANNELS is the number of channels for IBUS and is 14 by default. As an example Flysky fs-i6ab or RX2A receivers are sending 14 channels even when used with a 6 channel transmitter<br>
## Wiring: ## Wiring:
* Connect IBUS port of your receiver to green wire on right sensor cable(shorter) * Connect IBUS port of your receiver to green wire on the cable selected in config.h
* If you want to use the left cable instead, replace CONTROL_SERIAL_USART3 by CONTROL_SERIAL_USART2 and FEEDBACK_SERIAL_USART3 by FEEDBACK_SERIAL_USART2 in config.h
⚠ Red wire from sensor cable delivers 15v !!! ⚠ Red wire from sensor cable delivers 15v !!!
Use 3.3v from programming port, 5v from hall sensor cable, or a voltage regulator. Use 3.3v from programming port, 5v from hall sensor cable, or a voltage regulator.
