[Paparazzi-devel] Magnetic deviation

[Tilman Baumann]

I just had a braindead idea.
Wouldn't it be cool to have the ground station feed the current magentic 
deviation for the current location to the aircraft?
Or at least have some manual script that could do that based on the 
current location.
Because I find the whole process very weird, not terribly well 
documented and error prone.

This would be a computer readable response

(Not sure if licensing would permit us to use it like that. But I guess 
that is no problem if we don't do it automatically all the time)

Just my £0.02
