Oh oh
the plane does not know anything about headwind or cross wind
it senses neither .
If you try to change over the ground path or relative speed to a point on the ground-then you deal with the wind
I read and read your last post - it seemsyou believe the wind (a steady wind) affects the angle of the crarft -as it flies .
It does not.
Only YOU trieng to orient to a ground point - will affect needed positions or recovery to a previousposition
A neutral plane simply keeps on going where it is pointed
a as- stable plane -requires constant inputs
a self stabilizing design - of course - given time- will correct to a level flight attitude-all on it's own hook- if it doesn't smack something first.
I have built all three types and they all have good reasons for existing
