• Kept looking into why autopilot makes simulation plane crash instead of going to waypoints
• From video ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PQAfx6jsxNQ ), create waypoints and mission before take off and write them to board
• Noticed that when the plane is in autonomous mode, it acts the same as before we calibrated it on the R/C controller
• Edit to 3/7 Notes:
• Autopilot control is "Gear" on receiver for DX5e controller
• Created waypoints and mission, wrote to board - still FAILURE
• Could not come up with a solution by the end of the day, possibly has something to do with the Mission Planner not reading the orientation of the plane correctly, therefore it cannot fly the plane correctly.  Although, the APM is displaying the orientation and other sensor data correctly.  Must keep looking into this...
• Looking at ArduPlane 2.28 code in Arduino, maybe try loading modified version with HIL in it to plane. Uses:
• #define HIL_MODE           HIL_MODE_SENSORS
• Documentation says that you can't use this if using HIL_PROTOCOL_XPLANE
• Still no solution found...
