Wind Packet
This packet provides the Certus current 2D wind velocity. These values are only valid when external air data is provided to Certus. This can be either through the External Air Data Packet or when a pitot tube is interfaced to one of the GPIO pins. When this packet is written to the device, it disables the wind estimation filter and the wind values provided are used statically.
