Besides of knob PID tuning it is now possible to use throttle channel
to ramp-shape PID coefficients. This can be used to lower some PIDs on
VTOL while sinking to prevent wobble.
To use the feature select throttle as control input, choose throttle
range max and min values, assign the instance to particular PID
coefficient and define a range for it. When throttle is lower than
defined throttle range min value (or higher than max), then min and max
PID values will be used accordingly. Changing throttle from throttle
min to max will linearly scale PID value.
Note that it is possible to set MinPID > MaxPID. In that case increasing
control input value will decrease the PID coefficient.
Up to 3 independent instances can be configured. The number can be
increased changing the UAVO definition, but at the cost of extra RAM.
This module will periodically update values of stabilization PID settings
depending on configured input control channels. New values of stabilization
settings are not saved to flash, but updated in RAM. It is expected that the
module will be enabled only for tuning. When desired values are found, they
can be read via GCS and saved permanently. Then this module should be
disabled again.
needed by users because if too much changes I change the FS magic and trigger a
wipe.
Possibly the erase should require a particular "magic" object id value to
execute? This would make it harder to do manually through UAVOs though.
This allows the GCS to emulate a receiver device via the
telemetry link.
Select "GCS" as your input type in the manualcontrol config
screen and calibrate it as normal.
Note: The expected values for the channels are in microseconds
just like a PWM or PPM input device. The channel values
are validated against minimum/maximum pulse lengths just
like normal receivers.
Also reduce heap has it does not fit in SRAM anymore (not with current compiler).
(that's ok since if there is more space available, it will be reclaimed).

high RateKp terms. However it might be sensitive to gyro noise (vibrations).
In addition it is mathematically similar to lead shapign so probably only use
one or the other.
stabilization output a bit more resilient to the high frequency noise from
gyros. However this value shouldn't be too high as it will increase the phase
delay of the feedback loop and decrease stability. Default is 5 ms.
Note: this resests the stabilizationsettings object. Sorry guys.
heap reamining is low (about 500) but stacks can be ajusted (specially the 200 bytes from system) to give the level close to 1Ko if needed.
