Feature that you'd like us to add or change you'd like us to make:

APM 2.5 / Mission Planner already provides a means to change the autopilot 
orientation to "any angle", which means any 45 degree yaw when placed either 
horizontal or upside-down (good for copters), and any orthogonal orientation, 
e.g any combination of 90 degree increments in roll/pitch/yaw.

However, there are some basic orientations missing.  In my plane I would like 
to mount the APM 2.5 rotated 90 degrees in roll and 180 degrees in yaw, and 
that option is not available.  This is particularly important in my 
application, because I can only mount the unit inside the right side of the 
fuselage, and I want the USB connector pointing up so that I don't have to 
remove it when I flash the firmware.  In this orientation the analog connectors 
are up and the arrow points aft.  Note that this is -not- the same as "Roll270"

Is it possible to add "Roll90Yaw180" to the list of choices that show up in APM 
Planner?  I currently have ArduPlane 2.74b loaded.

Thanks,
Tom B.
