Servo edit

This warning message is displayed to make sure you realise the possibilities of 
activating the power switch if there is an ESC attached to the timer as the second 
servo. If the system is ready and power applied, selecting the second (ESC) servo 
could result in motor start and a lot of damage and heartache…… be aware!

Note also that if an ESC is connected to the timer, it will have its own power supply 
and using the power button on the edit screen will only turn off the control signal, not 
its power.

To continue to the servo edit tap the button.
