Get Params Hangs with Arducopter Heli - EDIT - SOLVED

Thought I had this solved, but its back again with no changes to config

QGC Build for Herelink for Arducopter Heli is hanging on get params with 3.6.11

EDIT - Nothing to do with Herelink/QGC. Its an Arducopter bug thats over a year old and makes the wheels fall off everything…

However, as Herelink has no ability to use mixing of channels, it makes the Parachute a one button action. Not ideal.

GCS will not be able to fully read all parameters. Mission Planner, APM Planner 2, and QGroundControl all fail to read all parameters, hanging on VISO_ORIENT. This happens regardless of connecting via USB or telemetry modem. If I remove "parachute enable" from the RCx channel option, on reboot all parameters read fine again. Here's the relevant parameters I used CHUTE_ALT_MIN 3 CHUTE_DELAY_MS 300 CHUTE_ENABLED 1 CHUTE_SERVO_OFF 1050 CHUTE_SERVO_ON 1950 CHUTE_TYPE 10 SERVO10_FUNCTION 27 SERVO10_MAX 2000 SERVO10_MIN 1000 SERVO10_REVERSED 0 SERVO10_TRIM 1500 CH10_OPT 21 (Chute enable: if this is set params don't load) CH11_OPT 22 (Chute release) **Version** _What version was the issue encountered with_ Copter 3.5.7 Stable Mission Planner 1.3.58 Winx64 APM Planner 2.0.24 Winx64 QGroundControl 3.2.4 Winx64 **Platform** [ ] All [ ] AntennaTracker [x] Copter [ ] Plane [ ] Rover [ ] Submarine **Airframe type** _What type of airframe (flying wing, glider, hex, Y6, octa etc)_ OctaQuad **Hardware type** _What autopilot hardware was used?
