Looking for help to bring some nice features from our fork to the main INAV

[ricardodeazambuja]

Hi. I am one of the developers of the CogniFly (an open-source collision resilient quadcopter). We have made some changes to our INAV fork that allow us to use a flight controller without barometer and still enable the autonomous flight modes when you have a rangefinder and optical flow. This same branch supports a Python library that makes super easy to control your drone autonomously, from an external computer or PS4 joystick. Additionally, we have another branch in our INAV fork that allows you to use a motion capture system as the global position, again, enabling all the autonomous flight modes. So, I am here because we have been planning to make a pull request long ago, but our lab is always without enough interns or students with time or firmware expertise to do that. I truly think our changes would be very useful for the INAV community, therefore I am submitting this issue hoping to find volunteers to help us bring those changes to the main INAV.

Any comments / suggestions are welcome :)
