Crow-aware elevator trim

Description

This popular script is for gliders with crow brakes. It allows the pilot to optimise pitch trim across the full range of crow, just using the regular elevator trim.

The script repurposes the elevator trimmer so that it bends the crow compensation curve. Click the trim and the script will adjust the appropriate points on the curve, automatically. The process is completely transparent; there's no need to look at the screen.

The script runs on any OpenTX or EdgeTX transmitter. All configuration data is stored in a curve and so travels with the model setup.

For more background, see "Crow-aware adaptive elevator trim" (blog post).

All users : if using v3.3, please upgrade to v3.4 (this fixes a bug introduced in v3.3)
RadioMaster TX16S Mk III users: please use v3.4 or above.
