Randy Mackay 0d88b602ec Copter: fix RSSI_RANGE param values
The extra .0 after the 5 was causing the mission planner to not display
5V in the dropdown even though the value was 5.

Randy Mackay d4cfb432ca Copter: use disparity threshold define for pre-arm checks
There are two duplicate checks, one in the pre-arm checks (i.e. checks
run every 15 seconds or so before the vehicle is armed) and one in the
arming checks (run immediately before arming).  The definition in the
pre-arm checks was still using the old hardcoded value.

Randy Mackay 9bbf40109e Copter: add LOG_FROM_STARTUP definition
Uncommenting this line in APM_Config.h will start logging as soon as the
board starts up instead of waiting for the vehicle to be armed

Jason Short b2238b7c8a Copter: auto esc calibration
Throttle is raised to maximum and then lowered without any input from
pilot

Randy Mackay 58602bd1ae Copter: move esc calibration to separate file
Restructured into case statement
Replaced use of g.throttle_max with definition
Added more comments
Send message to ground station instead of printing on console (although
probably both are unlikely to be read)

Randy Mackay 9f3803052f Copter: add support for DO_PARACHUTE from GCS
Mission command support was already included but this adds support for
DO_PARACHUTE received as a COMMAND_LONG message which are sent from the
GCS when the command should be executed immediately

Randy Mackay 3fa3cb6d65 Copter: remove EPM neutral from ch7/ch8 switch
The EPM library returns the pwm output sent to the EPM to the neutral
position automatically meaning an explicit ch7/ch8 setting is not
required

Default has been changed to 0.8 for -rc9 so we need to update the
description values so they match

Randy Mackay d15a5f9dcb Copter: THR_ACCEL_IMAX default to 800 2014-09-12 15:11:48 +09:00
Randy Mackay 224122958c Copter: reduce throttle to min once landed in RTL
This catches the case where the vehicle lands but the user doesn't
immediately put the throttle to zero.  Before this check it would
continue to attempt to hold it's

Randy Mackay eac26cdd0f Copter: THR_ACCEL_IMAX param range increased 2014-09-12 14:16:04 +09:00
Randy Mackay a12d9109e0 Copter: remove thr check during init_arm_motors
This check is redundant now that we have a check within the arm_check()
function.
Removing this check does raise a slight danger that someone could raise
the throttle after arming but before the gyro and baro calibration has
completed but the delay has been greatly shortened from what it once was
so there is much less danger that someone could approach the vehicle
during the short arming delay.

Randy Mackay 294f836c8c Copter: never send unhealthy terrain status
Copter does not yet rely on the terrain data (it's for informational
purposes only) so we will temporarily disable the failure flags to the
GCS to avoid support calls
