Flight Control update

Doing the display of what the IMU thinks is going on has been a bit
trickier than I expected. Of course I could have just done the simple
display of axes like John did with his, but NOOOO... I had to go do a
model of gizmo so I could more easily see any difference between what
the IMU thinks is going on and what reality is. Anyway, I got simple
model done and rendering correctly in OpenGL. A trimmed down screenshot
is attached. 

I still have to integrate the actual IMU data and do the rotations. I
think the tricky part will be the OpenGL calls rather than the
integrations. I also need to add more visual cues for "seeing" altitude.
The two tricks I think should do that are shadows on the ground and
following the model with the camera.

Next up - figuring out how to rotate the right things at the right time.
