985a4e7f61 removed the throttle min max settings for user config.
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°

f8903dea55 found the issue with stability - something to do with APVar.
commenting out 	setup_show(NULL,NULL); in startup_ground() causes some values to misload???
Or maybe it's a delay thing.

9e8ef19150 allow configuration of motor arming condition
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
