Removes the need for plane to do the math for finding the relative height.
Also caches the value at the same time we update current_loc, which is a
non behaviour change as that was the only time you could see a change in
the relative height propegate through the system anyways
@Description: This parameter reduces the pitch minimum limit of an auto-takeoff just a few seconds before it reaches the target altitude. This reduces overshoot by allowing the flight controller to start leveling off a few seconds before reaching the target height. When set to zero, the mission pitch min is enforced all the way to and through the target altitude, otherwise the pitch min slowly reduces to zero in the final segment. This is the pitch_min, not the demand. The flight controller should still be commanding to gain altitude to finish the takeoff but with this param it is not forcing it higher than it wants to be. (+1 squashed commits)
the glide_slope gets calculated every time there's a major event such as mission item change or wp_proportion change so its good to update the flight stage then too because.
also logging stage when stage changes, might as well get an extra data point in there when it's timely
Reverse thrust for controlled landings, even with much steeper approach slopes. This is achieved by allowing throttle demand to go negative to maintain a target airspeed. A Pre-Flare stage was added, triggered by an altitude, to allow for a slower airspeed just before land. That lower airspeed can be near stall.
