Description

Its quite difficult to tune a QuadPlane. It would be a great help if the key parameters were nicely laid out like they are for fixed wing and copter, so one doesn't have to dig through the Full Parameters page to find what is sought. I propose that, if Q_Enable = 1, then the Basic Tuning page will display an additional parameter grid under the existing Plane one.

Some other QuadPlane issues:
- The Standard and Advanced Params pages do not contain anything for Quadplane
- Many of the Q_ parameters are missing descriptions although they exist on the wiki.
- There are several Q_parameters that do not exist in the wiki. (not a MP issue)

Thank you!

Research direction

Start at Mission Planner's Basic Tuning page and compare its existing fixed-wing and copter parameter grids. Add a QuadPlane grid shown when Q_Enable = 1, covering the key Q_ parameters; confirm the requested parameters are visible without using the Full Parameters page.
