/********************** version 3.03 patch 8 ************************/

This could also cause CTDs when gunning and jumping.
2. Made a change to auto pilot so if you engage manually, there is still a 2 second disengage timer allowing stick to be put to the center,and the dead band to knock off is back to 10%.
If auto engaged there is no disengage timer, and dead band is 1%.
