Cleanflight CLI settings

Here is a link to the Cleanflight CLI settings. https://github.com/cleanflight/cleanfli ... ocs/Cli.md
A lot of these settings are now adjustable in the confgurator but a couple that peaked my interest were.
max_angle_inclination
This is the maximum angle you can tilt the quad in angle mode.
If you ever put your quad in the hands of a beginner (or you are learning yourself) you could easily back that off to tame it down even more.
Default is 500 or 50 degrees so in the CLI you would enter the following.
set max_angle_inclination
this will confirm what the current setting is then
set max_angle_inclination = 350
This would set the max angle to 35 degrees (change to what suits you but not too low or fighting the wind could be a problem)
auto_disarm_delay
Self explanatory really. I have found Cleanflight disarms too quickly for my liking.
I will be changing mine when I get home tonight, I will probably set it to 10 seconds.
set auto_disarm_delay = 10
DON'T FORGET TO TYPE save AND PRESS ENTER (props off or battery disconnected)
Other things I do as a matter of course are
set looptime = 2500 (for simonk or blheli and other flashed ESCs. I think Kiss can go even lower)
set acc_lpf_factor = 100 (filters some of the frame vibrations from the accelerometers, default is 4 but that is for 8bit boards. This is a per profile setting so has to been done and saved in each profile, the others are global.)
