Andrew Tridgell d24159204e HAL_PX4: fixed dirty_mask calculation in FRAM storage
this could lead to a number of bytes on 512 byte boundaries not being
written when changed in ram, so they would revert on next boot

priseborough 058fb8f3ee AP_NavEKF : Reduce ripple in estimates that can cause copter motor 'pulsing'
This patch reduces the level of 5Hz and 10Hz 'pulsing' heard in motors due to GPS and altimeter fusion which cause a small 5Hz and 10Hz ripple on the output under some conditions. Attitude, velocity and position state corrections from GPS, altimeter and magnetometer measurements are applied incrementally in the interval from receiving the measurement to the predicted time of receipt of the next measurement. Averaging of attitude state corrections is not performed during periods of rapid rotation.

priseborough 01536e0c80 AP_NavEKF : Clean up time stamps
Time stamps are now explicitly initialised to the current IMU time to avoid unwanted activation of timeout logic on filter start and various calls to the hal.scheduler->millis() object have been consolidated.

Randy Mackay cac10a3041 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

Randy Mackay cdc4038f27 Copter: pre-arm consistency check of gyros 2014-09-04 15:23:56 +09:00
Randy Mackay dbb0283dba Copter: land check gets overall throttle and rotation rate check
add check that overall throttle level is below the non-takeoff throttle
instead of just checking that it's motors have hit their lower limits
because low limits can also be caused by high yaw rotation requests.
Absolute climb rate requirement reduced to 30cm/s

Randy Mackay b214b8ba15 Copter: add short delay to arming to allow RC input
The short delay gives time for the RC inputs to be processed which
removes the chance of a false-positive on the "late frame" radio check.
A false positive could lead to an immediate disarm right after arming.

Randy Mackay f78aff67c2 Copter: make landing detector more strict
Made more strict by requiring 50 consecutive iterations where the climb
rate is below +- 40cm/s.  Previously it was 50 cumulative.

Removed check of failsafe.radio when clearing the land flag because it
could result in the vehicle taking off if the user picked it up.
