Includes updated motor tests. These need to be verified.
Nav loiter D was added (.03) - verify this helps.
Nav_lat is now filtered for Rate control. This is to keep jerky pitching to a minimum.

Added Octo Support
Fixed Loiter issue regarding Yaw towards loiter location
Added Yaw control alternative for testing

Changes log step default to zero by recommendation from John C. Not sure why it works, Compiler should init to 0 by default.

updated motor setup test to be sequencial pulses of the motors in CW order.
Fixed Mission scripting logic
fixed Free yaw error in neutral throttle
fixed D term issue with Baro hold - was too high
incremented firmware revision, removed frame var
removed setup show from startup
removed unused EEPROM functions
fixed broken demo mission
fixed non working loiter with delay

removed throttle integrator until I have more time to deal with the data
tweaked control loops to be more like RC1 for Max to try. They fly great BTW
tweaked config to be more better.
Mavlink - only cosmetic tweaks

The trunk is unstable, so please be careful. I've made a lot of changes based on the Sparkfun challange. Most include how we handle things like altitude, but the mission scripting has also been updated as well.

better handling of sonar at angles and baro mixing. - optimized for flats.
Crosstrack test bug found and fixed.

Takeoff now works well.
better logging.
tuned down kD for Yaw - was causing some bad behavior.
Auto mission now resets when entering mode.

Logs updated to do better Yaw Debugging
Landing is now rate limited
updated command desctiption.

I have moved Pitch_Max to a different part of the code. It was limiting SIMPLE mode which was bad. Now it only limits in Auto modes, RTL, LOITER, etc.
git-svn-id: https://arducopter.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@1899 f9c3cf11-9bcb-44bc-f272-b75c42450872
turned off altitude interpolation for now.
removed the "Dampener" setting in config. Using less confusing kD instead.
removed throttle_cruise reset in events.pde for RTL - would cause a crash.
added I term for pitch/roll for when flying greater than 20°
git-svn-id: https://arducopter.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@1868 f9c3cf11-9bcb-44bc-f272-b75c42450872
removed FBW mode - no longer needed
added set_throttle_cruise_flag to auto set the throttle value for alt hold
added altitude minimum option for waypoints
added support for relative WPs
added support for Yaw tracking per WP in options bitmask
lowered default sonar kD value
increased minimal value to set the throttle cruise value with CH7 switch
updated README.txt
added additional stock test missions available in CLI

This allows the user to configure their own motor arming condition in
APM_Config.h. For example, the user could set it up for MODE1
transmitters, by using:
#define MOTOR_ARM_CONDITION (g.rc_3.control_in == 0 && g.rc_1.control_in > 2700)
#define MOTOR_DISARM_CONDITION (g.rc_3.control_in == 0 && g.rc_1.control_in < -2700)
You could also set it up to use the "throttle cut" switch on a
transmitter, by mapping that to a spare channel.
The default (throttle minimum and maximum/minimum yaw) is the same as
it was before
This patch also adds reporting of motor arming to the GCS, which can
be useful for testing.

this makes it possible to allow a GCS to override RC input values for
non-HIL setups. This gives a way for a GCS to set an arbitrary switch
value, or set a precise PWM value for any control.
