Typhoon's only flight inputs are basically: desired pitch rate, desired roll rate, desired yaw rate, desired power output. The whole airplane is completely controlled by a computer (all of the control surfaces, engine controls), which gives you an artificially stable, crazy overpowered, laws-of-aerodynamics-defying video-game-like toy to navigate in a huge and completely empty 3D environment. So, yes, self driving cars are infinitely more complex.
