Previously, the yaw weight was based on the tilt angle of the attitude setpoint (R_sp(2, 2) == cos(tilt angle)). This makes no sense, it means the weight is low for high tilt angles even if there is no roll-pitch error at all. This patch changes the weight computation to be based on the tilt angle error: the yaw weight is 1 if there is no roll-pitch error (independent from current tilt angle), and is reduced for higher tilt angle errors. The weight was added in 05e9a30573f50dd271f10, without any explanation or derivation of how and why the weight is chosen that way. However this patch works much better in practice. The yaw control is improved, though it can be a bit slow to converge if you do continuous & fast roll-pitch motions (which is expected).
