Robert Lefebvre 794890884c TradHeli: enable Landing Collective when we are not moving
This prevents full negative pitch when touching down in Alt Hold or Auto-Landing.

Robert Lefebvre 531a9f4f25 TradHeli: disable AutoTune for Tradheli compile
We need the flash space, and this probably won't work for tradheli anyway since tradheli needs most of the control from Feedforward rather than P term.  And D-term is very very bad.

Randy Mackay d362bb45fd Copter: move sensor init from setup(to init_ardupilot
This fixes a bug in which the external led was not being disabled if the
EPM was enabled (they share pins).  The cause of the problem was the EPM
was being initialised before it's parameters had been loaded

Ben Nizette 58735ac1aa Copter: Use AHRS heading in GLOBAL_POSITION_INT message
The definition of the heading field for GLOBAL_POSITION_INT is the
compass heading, and so it is used for Plane and Rover.  Copter
however uses the GPS course over ground in this field.

My personal beef with this is simply that the mapping display in
MAVProxy is wrong for Copter.  The question is: Do any GCS currently
rely on this field for GPS course rather than getting it from
GPS_RAW_INT as they should?

Randy Mackay 7a2f49f7da Copter: arming check for gps if GPS FS set to LAND_EVEN_STABILIZE
Setting the GPS Failsafe to LAND_EVEN_STABILIZE means the copter will
LAND if it loses GPS even if it's in a manual flight mode like
Stabilize.  With this setting it makes sense to check the GPS quality
before arming even if we're in stabilize mode.

Randy Mackay bc1e06757b Copter: allow GPS failsafe to trigger AltHold
FS_GPS_ENABLE parameter accepts two new options, 2=AltHold,
3=LandEvenFromStabilize.
If set to 3 the GPS failsafe will trigger and LAND even from manual
flight modes like Stabilize and ACRO.  This is useful for users who want
to ensure their copters can never stray outside the circular fence (the
fence only triggers when it knows it is outside the bounds, and it can't
know this if it has no GPS)

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.

Randy Mackay f5b1114aea Copter: range check pilot requested lean angles
This fixes a bug uncovered by MHA in which the receiver output 900 pwm
for roll and pitch to the APM which was interpreted as requesting an 80
deg lean angle which the copter then attempted to do!

Randy Mackay f29f7d9777 Copter: bug fix to take-off in Loiter and AltHold
Always set the target altitude after take-off to be current altitude +
20cm.  This resolves a bug in which the target altitude could end up
being a couple of meters higher than the current altitude if the user
entered Loiter / Alt Hold mode before inertial nav altitude estimate had
settled.

Randy Mackay 03831cdd28 Copter: GPS ok only when not glitching
Removed redundant checks to GPS_ok before setting flight mode to RTL
(this check is already performed inside the set_mode function)
Removed reset of home distance and bearing when GPS lock is lost, it now
remains at the last known value

If the user is on the ground and flips CH7, do nothing instead of recording a bad takeoff altitude. Do another check to avoid a land right after a takeoff.
