For some reason my transmitter code had stopped working. It seems that the order the PWM data is coming out of my AR6100 receiver has changed. Is it possible I did something at the transmitter? In any event, I'll record them here since I have such a hard time trying to figure it out from scratch.

Channel Name My Name
Aileron Roll
Aux1 Aux
Gear Gear
Elevator Pitch
Throttle Throttle
Rudder Yaw

It turns out I commented out the Aux1 and Gear channels since I wasn't using them. Since I use pulseIn to read in each channel with a timeout of about 4.5ms, it caused the next PWM pulse to be missed making it seem like the receiver wasn't measuring data on subsequent channels.

Verified that this algorithm also works with the Spektrum AR6200.
