bba7fdc7c3 TradHeli: ch6 tuning of ext gyro to use control_in
This could also be used to control the other Heli Ch7 functions (direct drive tail rotor control).  This should be tidied up.

9ae66c1773 TradHeli: add support for drive tail rotors
Repurposed external gyro and made it multi-funcitonal.
required PWM on Ch8 to start the motor in RSC Mode moved up from 100 to 400. This is to facilitate two-stage switching of the motors with PWM>100 starting the tail motor, and PWM>400 starting the main motor.

2696e160e6 Copter: surface tracking improvement
Separate correction speeds for pilot input vs altitude-above-ground
errors to allow slower correction to sonar signals.
Change SONAR_GAIN parameter to be altitude error -> desired speed.  This
means it should be set 10x larger than before.
Replace hard-coded sonar cut-off percentage of 70% with
SONAR_RELIABLE_DISTANCE_PCT.
Reduce sonar cut-off percentage to 60%.
Add desired sonar altitude to dataflash log's CTUN message.

b4863dc997 TradHeli: Change to throttle controller to allow swash plate collective to move, even if disarmed, if we are in Acro or Stab. This is slightly dangerous... as a user could cause a problem if they do not follow the proper usage procedures. If they do not route the ESC through the APM, but instead direct to Rx. And then if they do not Arm, they could take off in Stab mode while disarmed, but then when they switch to Alt_Hold, it will drop the collective to the bottom and they will fall. This can be saved by switching back to Stab. And it requires operation outside of the normal operating procedure.
This change is being made because most heli users expect to be able to check the swash plate operation before arming and taking off.
