It is needed for production on CF-BL but it is not any issue of inluding it on other platforms aswell
The limits are not yet decided The test will run for approx 30 sec, and will feed the ESCs with a new PWM signal every 50 msec to prevent it from going asleep. Run one test per motor one at a time.
Keep a local copy instead
These pins will be tested indirectly from the rpm test by reading on them.

The ESCs needs to be fed a signal constantly to not go to sleep, however we can not start the test until ESCs are started (which we dont know exactly when that is). To get around this issue we will wait a time, while constantly feeding the ESCs at 1KHz with a 0 PWM signal. After this time we start the test.

Add a new test for Brushless that measures the rpm of the propellers at startup.
The limits can be tweaked if needed (maybe after testing with some bad soldering). Tested within a closed box.
The RPM starts fluctuating slightly but the average is pretty much the same.
The BL needs to be stuck in some way for running this test or it will start flying a bit.
I also removed the settings.json file from the repo. Its in .gitignore so its causing issues when mismatched from the checked in version. It is added as a separate commit in this PR
