jasonshort a8b7505268 Lots of little things. Yaw control is updated based on Jani's logs. Thanks!
Takeoff now works well.
better logging.
tuned down kD for Yaw - was causing some bad behavior.
Auto mission now resets when entering mode.

jasonshort 38e57bccb0 Added delay option for WP_NAV. The copter will LOITER in seconds based on p1 value.
This turned out to be functionally identical to LOITER_TIME so I combined them.

jasonshort f6f5a0c8dd Added rudimentary tuning with CH6. Assign this to your Flaps knob on your radio. in APM_config.h set your desired option, then upload. The knob will adjust the value in real time. Enter the CLI and run test, tune to see the output value.

jasonshort 0db3f100cc Reworking Yaw some more. Yaw is testing really well with this version.
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.

jasonshort 9b96a18ad4 Removed all calls to legacy trim_radio(). Handled by radio setup.
Added AP_Var Fingerprint checker. Will not let users fly with OOD firmware.
Tweaked Yaw to give better response. Let me know how it goes. It looks fine, but I've not flown it.

turned off altitude interpolation for now.
