*
*The MC land-detector goes through 3 states before it will detect landed:
*
*State 1 (=ground_contact):
*ground_contact is detected once the vehicle is not moving along the NED-z direction and has
*a thrust value below 0.3 of the thrust_range (thrust_hover - thrust_min). The condition has to be true
*for GROUND_CONTACT_TRIGGER_TIME_US in order to detect ground_contact
*
*State 2 (=maybe_landed):
*maybe_landed can only occur if the internal ground_contact hysteresis state is true. maybe_landed criteria requires to have no motion in x and y,
*no rotation and a thrust below 0.1 of the thrust_range (thrust_hover - thrust_min). In addition, the mc_pos_control turns off the thrust_sp in
*body frame along x and y which helps to detect maybe_landed. The criteria for maybe_landed needs to be true for MAYBE_LAND_DETECTOR_TRIGGER_TIME_US.
*
*State 3 (=landed)
*landed can only be detected if maybe_landed is true for LAND_DETECTOR_TRIGGER_TIME_US. No farther criteria is tested, but the mc_pos_control goes into
*idle (thrust_sp = 0) which helps to detect landed. By doing this the thrust-criteria of State 2 will always be met, however the remaining criteria of no rotation and no motion still
*have to be valid.
*It is to note that if one criteria is not met, then vehicle exits the state directly without blocking.
*
*If the land-detector does not detect ground_contact, then the vehicle is either flying or falling, where free fall detection heavily relies
*on the acceleration. TODO: verify that free fall is reliable
