#MSP failsafe/ takeover using RX?

Hello, I have a question if the following in possible in betaflight.

I am controlling my drone using an MSP connection (both UART and USB works fine) to the onboard computer on the drone.

This works nice, however I am currently struggling with getting a "good" failsafe or human overtake working. Currently I plugin my remote control over USB to my PC and send RC commands over WiFi to the onboard PC. If I press a certain switch on my joystick the MSP node on the onboard PC then passes the RC commands from my joystick to the drone instead of the ones from the program.

This works okay... but has some disadvantages like increased delay and problems if the program crashes (bad to add additional complexity etc.).

Is it possible to "swtich" from MSP mode back to RX? (Similar to how it works in PX4/ ardupilot when switching away from "offboard" control back to human input over the RX?)

Thanks in advance!

I am trying this, and have installed betaflight 4.6 but not seeing it as an option in betaflight configurator?

doh! nm. In the CLI for betaconfigurator, i "set msp_override_channels_mask = 47", and then "get msp_override_channels_mask", but I forgot to click save.
