my heading PD (I skipped the I, usually it's more hassle tuning the system gains with an I then it's worth)
Good point, I always skip the I too. I recommend also adding a PD only option.
you'll all beat me up with practical problems and documentation issues
I'll take a crack at it
MCU loading gauge

Webbot, we couldn't ditch floating point numbers altogether as the gains will always have to be floating point, so i don't think there's a benefit to switching the rest.
