Setting channel safety to more than -100/+100

How can I set the channel safety value to be more than -100 (or make it scale together with the limits)?

For example, I have scale for the throttle channel set to +130/-130 (this is required for my setup). When I enable safety switch for this channel to be on the throttle hold switch, I cannot set safety to move beyond -100. Is this a workaround for this? I need to be able to set safety value to match my lowest limit, otherwise safety won't work since FBL unit does not see the calibrated zero (which is -130).

Then instead of the safety value you should use a plus complex mixer page for the throttle hold on the throttle channel.
If there you set a "fixed" function with value of -100, then the channel scale will make it -130 in the end...

This is a bug, there is a commit fixing this but I don't think it made it in 2.1.0 or 2.1.1

Your choices are:
1. Use a experimental build
2. Wait for another release

You can find builds here, or you can build your own using my Linux VM or RugWarrior's Windows environment.

Or you can ask for one, I'll gladly help, just tell me your TX.

Thanks all, didn't realise somebody has already reported this... I'll use complex mixer for now, don't want to risk it with experimental release - I'm flying trex 450 and 600 with my Devo8s.
