-> Includes precision land feature in Land, Loiter, and Auto modes.
For Developers: If you would like to compile the source code for yourself, you will need to modify one of the submodule files. Simply replace the irlock.cpp file with this file. The irlock.cpp file is located in the following directory: ardupilot\modules\PX4Firmware\src\drivers\irlock

APM:Copter V3.4-beta Firmware:
-> Precision Landing is now a default feature in the latest ArduCopter code. Note that the latest ArduCopter precision landing code requires a sonar/lidar sensor (e.g., SF10/A). Read more here.
-> The Mission Planner parameter names have been changed to "PLAND..." (instead of PRECLND...). See this section for more details.
