Hello all ,
I am a university student and I have to include in my final year project report the reason why I am using the Ardupilot version of Arduino IDE instead of the official one.
I want to include the primary reasons why I am developing the arducopter code on the custom IDE.
Thank you .

There was a Hardware Abstraction Layer built in to ArduPilot a long time ago and this required extensions to Arduino IDE to support the compile time options required.
Most developers use make to build ArduPilot these days and there are other IDEs that are much more powerful to edit code than the Arduino IDE
