v3.9:
Added a Profile Switch on-screen button option that allows you to switch quickly through your preference profiles.
Pressing it cycles through all your profiles.
Also bug fixes to do with profile editing and creation, plus dual joystick mode.

v4.0:
Add a new list to replace the combined yaw checkbox, so that you can optionally disable the yaw control of the cyclic joystick.
Emergency/Reset and Takeoff/Land buttons now change colour when pressed.
Also fixes for drifting inputs.
