Inertial Control
...
I added inertial navigation based on the simulator data. This is an option only available if you compile with Arduino and set
#define INERTIAL_NAV ENABLED
in the APM_Config.h file.
This has been tested for one real flight and did not crash my quad, but consider it very alpha. The quad may be unpredictable at first until the error correction fixes poorly calibrated accels. Be Careful.
Most of the real work is in the inertia file, but the error correction, new variable defines and calibration calls are sprinkled throughout.
The Log should record RAW messages with special debugging values.

GPS: fixed the UBLOX parser to handle unknown messages
...
the parser was broken in several ways:
1) when it received an unknown message it didn't update the ck_a and ck_b fields, so it
thought the message had a bad checksum, which meant it got out of protocol sync
2) the read() method would return false if the last message from the GPS was of an unknown type.
So we relied on the last msg always being one that we understand and want
3) the parser considered any valid UBLOX message to be 'new data', whereas we only actually get
a new fix when we get box a new position and velned message
4) the total message size per update is more than 128 bytes, but the serial port was opened
with only a 128 byte buffer, so we got corruption regularly

Stabilization patches
...
removed Angle error limit for stabilization
constricted Iterm to +- 5° error and limited the implementation to when the quad is +- 5° from center
doubled the output limit for Rate controller.
increased default Rate_P gain to .18 with matching Rate_D of .004
Tested in the SIM and in backyard. dramatically increases performance and quad no longer overshoots and flips when pushed hard.
