fixed Issues related to EPLRS setCommand()

[Pizzicato]

@Flappie In case it's valuable, it seems that the uncontrolled setting isn't a factor.

Because I'm a curious soul, I set up another quick test mission - this time with a single hornet that's already in flight. I then created a simple alternating that toggles EPLRS on and off every 2 seconds. There obviously isn't a real world use case for this, but I just wanted to stress-test EPLRS on a single aircraft without the uncontrolled flag set. 

The triggers maintain a count of the ON/OFF iterations in the log.

• Test run 1 crashed silently to the desktop after 59 cycles.
• Test run 2 crashed on the FIRST cycle!
• Test run 3 crashed after 3 cycles (This time while on the "EPLRS to OFF" part of the cycle)  

Hope that's helpful.

It's now reported.

It's been a week since I've had to deal with my dynamic spawn randomly crashing the dedicated server.
I can confirm that this has nothing to do with “uncontrolled”.
Big Thanks Pizzicato for pointing this out.
and thanks to Flappie for the report.
waiting for the fix

@R-Born So far, devs are unable to reproduce the crash. Can you please send me your mission? It might help them crash DCS faster.

Well that's bizarre. Replicating bugs is a weird and unpredictable endeavour. 

Thanks for following up anyway, Flappie. I hope someone eventually manages to get to the bottom of this.

@Flappie Did you have them check the first stress test that I uploaded (not the on/off test or the one from last year)? It doesn't appear to have any downloads, but I'd be surprised if they were able to get all 50 Hornets started without experiencing the crash.

I must have been lucky on the first try, because I'm now unable to reproduce the crash using the "No uncontrolled" mission.

However, I've just reproduced the crash using the "Stress test" mission (in les than 10 seconds) and I've sent it to devs.

[Pizzicato]

Good to hear. Thanks Flappie.

Hi @Pizzicato, this should now be fixed.

[Pizzicato]

@Flappie Great news! Thanks so much for getting this addressed.
