If telemetry data is fed back to the pilot, then the PILOT has to process the data and make corrections - that should be OK. However, if the data processing is taking place inside the airplane and the airplane is electronically making corrections then that should NOT be OK.
So you're saying an audible tone when wings are level would be okay?

If processing is taking place inside the airplane...is it still "telemetry"? Event, sensor, respond (onboard)....that's a servo, speed controller and fuel regulator!

My thought was if a telemetry function can be turned off, it must be turned off. If it can't be disabled, then it's okay.
