Shield Mode #507

Closed ghost closed 1 year ago

Folks are going crazy over the Connex Falcore due to its ease of entry for newb pilots.

Could a shield mode be incorporated into Cleanflight?

Falcore’s world first patented SHIELD mode allows anyone to race from day one. SHIELD mode using sonar and barometer sensors, will automatically maintain flight altitude, and allow pilots to fly close to the ground without the need to maintain altitude. If they use barometer and sonar, you will have more chance of view it implemented in iNav.

Cleanflight has barometer support, to maintain altitude but if you don't use an external unit it will not be too precise. I don't know if this "patented" mode has something different.
