Transmitter Trims with iNav

YES I know Auto trim is an option in iNav, but you try using that on a windy day. Not possible....

1. Launch & use the trims to get the model to fly straight
2. Land
3. Pins into the surfaces to hold them
4. Loosen clevises
5. Reset the trims on your Tx
6. Take up slop
7. Tighten screws
8. Send again, repeat if needed

Turn assist for rudder models (+V2.5 )
- - - -
nav_fw_control_smoothness = 7

Stop iNav using the Rudder for RTH, Loiter (Position Hold) etc...
- - - -
Set fw_turn_assist_yaw_gain = 0.0

Two Auto launch settings
- - - -
set nav_fw_launch_timeout = 10000 that makes it 10 sec climb. Default 5000
set nav_fw_launch_climb_angle = 22, default 18, should be less for a MT
