…sthrough (32430) ArduPilot PR #32430 removed the H_FLYBAR_MODE, H_GYR_GAIN, and H_GYR_GAIN_ACRO parameters along with mechanical flybar and external tail gyro passthrough support in ACRO mode for single-rotor TradHeli. H_TAIL_TYPE=1 (Servo with External Gyro) now fails arming checks. Updates the parameter list, tailrotor setup, manual tuning, and transmitter tuning pages to match.
