Detailed Description

These conversion functions follow the NASA rotation standards definition file available online.

Their intent is to lower the barrier for MAVLink adopters to use gimbal-lock free (both rotation matrices, sometimes called DCM, and quaternions are gimbal-lock free) rotation representations. Euler angles (roll, pitch, yaw) will be phased out of the protocol as widely as possible.
