c4ae641c81 TradHeli: ramp up changes
Rewrote tail and main rotor ramp up methods
Moved direct drive ESC speed control into rsc_control method
Pass in ch7 servo as servo_aux to TradHeli motors object constructor
split CH7_SETPOINT parameter into GYR_GAIN and DIRECTDRIVE parameters
replaced RSC_RATE with uint8_t RSC_RAMP_TIME parameter
rename GOV_SETPOINT parameter to RSC_SETPOINT
RSC_MODE parameter description updated to indicate it controls the
source of main rotor speed

a81922d5fb 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.

919b26d28f GPS Glitch: revert accel max to 10m/s/s
This may not be the best real world value but it keeps the autotester
from failing because it recovers from the glitch before the 5second
