In case you would like to see some new feature in the software you can share it right here!
You can also report issue or odd behavior here.

Does Spirit know heli orientation (yaw / pitch / roll) in some absolute form, without GeoLink?
I mean, if I take off the heli oriented to north, is it possible for Spirit to know this angle after 2 minutes of flying?

If this would be possible, then transmitting this data over telemetry would open a lot of possibilities, especially for OpenTX. For example showing you on screen heli yaw in case you've flown too far and see a dot in the sky.

After some think I guess Spirit must know this, at least the pitch and the roll, otherwise it couldn't perform the rescue. So I guess it knows some kinf if "absolute" yaw too?
