Default RoboFlight?

Hi!

I tried doing that a while ago .... it didn't work

The major problem is the wind is not constant and non-replicable so sooner or later the plane will loose its attitude and the rest of the computer-generated stick movements will result erroneous.

I am currently working on fixing the system by adding computer vision. The problem with computer vision is the FPS are very slow and that causes room for error because there are less corrections made throughout a flight so it makes the flight looks sloppy.

A good fix for this would be using AVCS gyros all around, but that would take the fun part of it plus it would increment the total plane weight.
