The playback configuration file is just what it says, playback the flight with a limited number of options. It records the lat/lon/height of the plane and when playing back puts the plane at the recored locations. Nothing fancy, really. If you want to playback flight where the controls are recorded then you'll need to create a new configuration file for it. (In that case you shouldn't play back with --fdm=external).
