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)

Robert Lefebvre bba7fdc7c3 TradHeli: ch6 tuning of ext gyro to use control_in
This could also be used to control the other Heli Ch7 functions (direct drive tail rotor control).  This should be tidied up.

Robert Lefebvre 9ae66c1773 TradHeli: add support for drive tail rotors
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.

Robert Lefebvre f67d95ac75 TradHeli: Modify Throttle_Auto to prevent helis from pushing hard downward while running up the motor.

Extra check so we only run the disarm check when we are actually armed.

ignored

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
