Switch to LAND flight mode if throttle failsafe triggers and we do not have a GPS.
THR_FAILSAFE renamed to FS_THR_ENABLE.
THR_FS_VALUE renamed to FS_THR_VALUE.
THR_FS_ACTION removed (action is now controlled by setting FS_THR parameter).
Renamed loiter_radius to circle_radius to better reflect it's purpose.
Removed some unused parameters including WP_MODE, WP_MUST_INDEX, LOG_LASTFILE, AXIS_P
Consolidated RTL state to be captured by rtl_state variable.
Combined update_RTL_Nav and verify_RTL functions which performed the same function but one was for missions, the other for the RTL flight mode.
Renamed some RTL parameters and global variables to have RTL at the front.
Landing detector now checks accel-throttle's I term and/or a very low throttle value
Changes include:
New low-level get_throttle_accel function takes target acceleration and compares vs earth-frame Z accelerometer values to produce output to motors.
Higher level throttle controllers modified to call new get_throttle_accel controller
Throttle_rate_stabilized controller added which maintains a desired climb/descent rate
Throttle_land controller added - descends using normal auto throttle controller to 10m then descends at 50cm/s
Multiple throttle modes added including landing mode
Land flight mode no longer needs GPS
Throttle cruise maintenance moved to update_throttle_cruise function
sanity checking added to accelerometer calibration routine.
user feedback is sent using gcs_send_text_fmt instead of Serial.printf.
moved ins parameters to new eeprom number to avoid conflicts with older parameters.
other small changes including renaming of functions and parameters.
Channels 5 to 11 changed to RC_Channel_aux.
Removed channel 9 because APM_RC doesn't support it in any case.
Updated EEPROM format version to 119 because of the change to RC_Channel_aux and because k_param_rc_11 moved to be after k_param_rc_10.
Defined camera_mount (MNT_) in Parameters.h and Parameters.pde so that it appears in global parameters list.
Removed unused camera_*_gain and camaera_*_continuous parameters.
pre-calculated airspeed resistance pitches copter automatically to gain a certain speed allowing the speed controller to work off of a better set point - similar to Alt hold.
added param tilt_comp with a default of 54 which equals 19.5° of pitch to go 6m/s
upped Z and Y target speeds to int32_t for speed squared calculation
Added Tilt_Compensation to Params,
deprecated RTL_Land_Enabeled
RTL_Approach_alt is not int16_t, -1 means do noting. 0 means land, >1 means hover to that altitude after timeout.
