Some time ago, back in the '9X radio opentx firmware days as it were, someone thought it wise to remove FULL as a source from the mixer, in spite of my protests. Well, it made enough sense at the time, given only two-position switches -- even though some folks had installed multi position switches.
However, now we have the Taranis with all its THREE-position switches. The lack of a FULL source is now a real problem, because there's no way to get only -100 or +100 out of a SINGLE mixer line, using a switch, while avoiding a zero from the switch's middle position.
For clarity, the source named MAX supplies only 0 or +100, depending on a switch state. The source named FULL used to supply only -100 or +100. But it's no longer available.
One can of course throw two MAX mixer lines at it, one with -100 weight and one with +100 and each with opposite switch conditionals, say !SD^ and SD^. But this means doubling the number of lines required, which gets worse when you want one switch to affect two or more channels -- or even two channels and two switches, actually -- four lines instead of two. For the former case, one can add an intermediary mixer channel, with the two MAX lines etc and use that channel's output as a source for those that rely on that single switch. But this is still painful and is especially so if one has more than one switch involved.
So ... am I missing something or is this actually a good argument to have FULL reinstated on the Taranis? Obviously, I think it is. I never wanted it taken out in the first place, you know.

EDIT: Offset -100 with weight +200 does not work, because the mixer line is ignored entirely if the switch state is not true.
