// @Param: TCONST
// @DisplayName: Roll Time Constant
// @Description: This controls the time constant in seconds from demanded to achieved bank angle. A value of 0.5 is a good default and will work with nearly all models. Advanced users may want to reduce this time to obtain a faster response but there is no point setting a time less than the aircraft can achieve.

// @Param: P
// @DisplayName: Proportional Gain
// @Description: This is the gain from bank angle to aileron. This gain works the same way as the P term in the old PID (RLL2SRV_P) and can be set to the same value.
// @Range: 0.1 2.0
// @Increment: 0.1
// @User: User
AP_GROUPINFO("P", 1, AP_RollController, gains.P, 0.4f),
// @Param: D
// @DisplayName: Damping Gain
// @Description: This is the gain from roll rate to aileron. This adjusts the damping of the roll control loop. It has the same effect as RLL2SRV_D in the old PID controller but without the spikes in servo demands. This gain helps to reduce rolling in turbulence. It should be increased in 0.01 increments as too high a value can lead to a high frequency roll oscillation that could overstress the airframe.

// @Increment: 0.01
// @User: User
AP_GROUPINFO("D", 2, AP_RollController, gains.D, 0.02f),
// @Param: I
// @DisplayName: Integrator Gain
// @Description: This is the gain from the integral of bank angle to aileron. It has the same effect as RLL2SRV_I in the old PID controller. Increasing this gain causes the controller to trim out steady offsets due to an out of trim aircraft.
// @Range: 0 1.0
// @Increment: 0.05
// @User: User
AP_GROUPINFO("I", 3, AP_RollController, gains.I, 0.0f),
// @Param: RMAX
// @DisplayName: Maximum Roll Rate
// @Description: This sets the maximum roll rate that the controller will demand (degrees/sec). Setting it to zero disables the limit. If this value is set too low, then the roll can't keep up with the navigation demands and the plane will start weaving. If it is set too high (or disabled by setting to zero) then ailerons will get large inputs at the start of turns. A limit of 60 degrees/sec is a good default.
// @Range: 0 180
// @Units: degrees/second
// @Increment: 1
// @User: Advanced
AP_GROUPINFO("RMAX", 4, AP_RollController, gains.rmax, 0),
// @Param: IMAX
// @DisplayName: Integrator limit
// @Description: This limits the number of degrees of aileron in centi-degrees over which the integrator will operate. At the default setting of 1500 centi-degrees, the integrator will be limited to +- 15 degrees of servo travel. The maximum servo deflection is +- 45 centi-degrees, so the default value represents a 1/3rd of the total control throw which is adequate unless the aircraft is severely out of trim.
// @Range: 0 4500
// @Increment: 1
