Align the way motor output is computed with the model used in the mixer generation script. previous: `out = (roll_gain*roll + pitch_gain*pitch + yaw_gain*yaw + thrust)*out_gain` new: `out = roll_gain*roll + pitch_gain*pitch + yaw_gain*yaw + thrust_gain*thrust` which is the standard matrix*vector multiplication. This commit has 0 effect on symmetric platforms (i.e. most) as thrust_gain==1 on these platforms. On asymmetric platform --where some thrust_gain are lower than 1-- the previous formulation resulted in coupling between thrust and other axes. fixes #8628

PX4 Users
The PX4 User Guide explains how to assemble supported vehicles and fly drones with PX4. See the forum and chat if you need help!
PX4 Developers
This Developer Guide is for software developers who want to modify the flight stack and middleware (e.g. to add new flight modes), hardware integrators who want to support new flight controller boards and peripherals, and anyone who wants to get PX4 working on a new (unsupported) airframe/vehicle.
Developers should read the Guide for Contributions. See the forum and chat if you need help!
Weekly Dev Call
The PX4 Dev Team syncs up on a weekly dev call.
Note
The dev call is open to all interested developers (not just the core dev team). This is a great opportunity to meet the team and contribute to the ongoing development of the platform.
