# LaunchDetectionStatus (UORB message)
Status of the launch detection state machine (fixed-wing only).
**TOPICS:** launch_detection_status
## Fields
| Name | Type | Unit [Frame] | Range/Enum | Description |
| --------------------------------- | -------- | ------------ | ---------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| timestamp | `uint64` | | | time since system start (microseconds) |
| launch_detection_state | `uint8` | | |
| selected_control_surface_disarmed | `bool` | | | flag indicating whether selected actuators should kept disarmed (have to be configured in control allocation) |
## Constants
| Name | Type | Value | Description |
| --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ------- | ----- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| <a id="#STATE_WAITING_FOR_LAUNCH"></a> STATE_WAITING_FOR_LAUNCH | `uint8` | 0 | waiting for launch |
| <a id="#STATE_LAUNCH_DETECTED_DISABLED_MOTOR"></a> STATE_LAUNCH_DETECTED_DISABLED_MOTOR | `uint8` | 1 | launch detected, but keep motor(s) disabled (e.g. because it can't spin freely while on catapult) |
| <a id="#STATE_FLYING"></a> STATE_FLYING | `uint8` | 2 | launch detected, use normal takeoff/flying configuration |
