I agree in everything Martin said.

To make it clear: My issue with the fdm wasn't the fact that an 
easy-to-fly-but-false one has been developed. It is o.k. and I can understand 
that a lot of people wishes something like that. 

My issue was that it wasn't added as another selectable option as proposed by 
Curt, Ron and me. Instead the fdm has been simply replaced, even without asking 
their original author, which is in my eyes not very respectful. 

As it seems that it indeed can be solved that easily as proposed, as helijah 
wants to change it so we can have both fdms beside, everyone inluding me will 
be happy now, and the discussion can be ended.
