This fixes RSSI for the Control Zero F7 but I have noticed that while this works perfectly for SBUS receivers, for PPM receivers it does not decrease the RSSI visual value in QGC when removing the RC transmitter connection.
When a PPM receiver is connected and the connection is lost the autopilot goes into RC Scan Mode (in the RC Update Module) to determine what is connected (even though something already is connected).
The main issue with this is that PPM receivers don't go into RC Failsafe but I don't think it is an issue with this autopilot. It looks to be an issue with the RC Update Module and how it is handled at the module level for non I/O coprocessor autopilots.
Tested with an X8R (SBUS) and a Dragonlink (PPM) as well as a Dragonlink set to SBUS as the output. SBUS worked as intended. See screenshots below.
in workspace settings. This comes down to user preference
and there's no particular reason to change this based on the workspace.
I found it confusing to have this non-default behavior
just for PX4 editing.

Two sources:
1. global to local conversion was sometimes giving issues, so do everything in global
2. on startup the RTL didn't check if the home position was valid before processing it
Moving the command handling to a separate function that gets called
whenever a vehicle command is available to always react on commands
and not just when already a task is running.
This solves e.g. commanding an Orbit when in Staibilized.
It is important that setpoints get initialized with NAN and not overwritten
if specifically set by a successful flight task execution. It's then
clear if any setpoints were intentionally and successfully set.
Crucial for the position controller's emergency failsafe and the
seamless setpoint handover to the next flight task.
