Is there a way to increase the default channel inputs that the radio control transmitter block can take?
It it is currently limited to 8 despite many SBUS-in signals from receivers carrying nearly 16 channels. Perhaps there is a hardcoded parameter somewhere in a parameter list for a certain hardware device.
Having more than 8 channels would greatly increase the efficacy of this system for aircraft utilizing various modes and control peripheri.

RC transmitter block is using the InputRc uORB message to read the RC signals. You can use uORB read block and select inputRC as the uORB message, then you should have access to all the 18 channels. The output of the block will be a Simulink bus and you can select the bus elements as per your requirements. For example the RC signals are available in element named 'values'.
