Bug fixes and improvements:

• Fixed issue with update of the Contest leaderboard
  

[h3]Revert of joystick calibration system[/h3]
Due to frequent problems with the calibration of certain controllers, we decided to return the calibration system from previous versions of the simulator. On the new system, which we want to offer to everyone in the best condition, we will continue to develop and test it in order to bring it back as soon as possible.

With revert of joystick calibration, option to choose between various inputs when (two or more) inputs are connected is disabled and will be back with (new) upgraded joystick calibration.

Developers are suggesting that if you have connected controller (with usb or BT) and you cannot use him in the simulator but green indicator is visible, that means that you have another input connected to your computer. In order for the controller to work, it is necessary to disconnect the other input that is connected and restart the simulator. This situation is an extreme case where you have multiple HIDs connected and so far we haven't had many such problems.

• Added button invitation to our discord server in Main Menu
  
• Adjusted map bounds on Racecourse map

• Fixed issue when drone is flyable as disarmed after escape from pause menu/settings
