2013-04-12 21:59:52 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 575f346e85 Plane: removed HIL_MODE_ATTITUDE

2013-04-12 17:44:40 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 11eb0cfce1 Plane: update for new AP_Navigation controller class
this switches ArduPlane over to use the L1 navigation controller, via
a generic nav_controller object pointer.

Note that the nav_controller controls all types of navigation now,
including level flight and heading hold. This provides a cleaner
abstraction than the old method of special case navigation handling

Andrew Tridgell 2506c216dd Plane: added a second type of stick mixing
this changes STICK_MIXING from a boolean to a tri-state. With

uses the old style of direct stick mixing.
