Yay!  Thanks to the amazing work of all the people contributing to this project I was able to fly my PixHawk EasyStar (with added ailerons).

Inspired by the perfect weather, gin clear blue and almost flat calm I launched in manual, trimmed out then tested FBWA and even tried Loiter - all worked perfectly.

I let it fly 5 circles in Loiter on the first mission - awesome.  Thank you.

Flushed with success I recharged and setup a very short route with a few waypoints and relaunched.

I switched to AUTO but the plane did not seem to goto a waypoint.  As I am very new to this I did not risk it very far but I am now trying to learn how to analyse logs.

I think line 18564 is where I select AUTO mode

I am guessing I should be able to see the PixHawk make a demand to fly to a point but I am not sure how to read that.

Maybe I need to add some more logging?

Any hints?
