Pixhawk Standard Frame Controllers

Hi there,

I'm working with the Pixhawk right now and I'm wondering where the standard frame controllers are stored in the PX4 Firmware code. What I'm trying to do is set out a custom mission with my own additions, but I don't want to rewrite all the controllers that have already been defined. For example, one of the components of my mission involve using a quadcopter configuration. Nonetheless, it appears to me that use of the PX4 standard frame is exclusively in manual mode, which means that when I flip the switch to mission, I'm running my own controllers (please tell me if that's not the case). Since PX4 has already done a lot of the controls work, I thought it'd be most efficient if I borrow their stability controller in my mission code, i.e. their middleware. 

That said, does anyone know where the controls code for the standard frame is kept and how I could best use it?

Thanks!
