I'm afraid that i disagree

I think that there is a line in between mixes, endpoints, dual rates and gyros. you can program as much of that as you want but still it will not fly your plane for you. You may use a mix to iron out an unwanted side effect of another control surface but it cannot keep your plane steady without some sort of input from the guy behind the Tx. The gyro sits up in the plane senses an unwanted movement without any control input from the ground and corrects it without the pilot doing anything. I believe that this is a lot more automated than using a mix and that computerized radios should be allowed since they basically save the pilot a lot of time in setting up their model and allow more than 1 control movement with 1 stick movement but gyros should not be allowed in competition because then it is the best gyro that wins and not necessarily the best pilot (well possibly the most cashed up pilot).
