Would it be possible to add in either vtx power adjustment over SA via switch for mid flight adjustment or have the betaflight feature of vtx reverting from set power to 25mw when disarmed.

This is a great feature.

In my Quad with Kiss FC when disarmed the vtx power is set to 1mw. Very usefull when you are config with the lipo connected.

- VTX with support for FC control are now totally managed from the
FC. The FC will store the VTX configuration and override any changes
made manually (e.g. with a button). Users can disable VTX control
to manage channels manually.
- Added new parameters for VTX configuration: vtx_band, vtx_channel,
vtx_freq, vtx_halfduplex, vtx_low_power_disarm, vtx_pit_mode_freq
and vtx_power.
- Added support for automatically switching the VTX power when
arming (fixes #3112).

Note that there are a several changes from the BF code. We do support
an additional setting for the low power during disarm option and
the MSP messages contain more data to allow users to configure the
VTX channel/power from the configurator. Our MSP messages also work
when the VTX is offline (the settings are stored in the FC and applied
later once the VTX is powered up).

Thanks to Matek (http://www.mateksys.com) for providing an FCHUB-VTX
to test the Tramp protocol.

Thanks to AKK (http://www.mateksys.com) for providing an X2-ultimate
to test SmartAudio.
