Since calibration seems to be an issue again and again, we should probably provide default sensitivity and neutral values for the accel and gyro in the imu driver headers. e.g sw/airborne/subsystems/imu/imu_aspirin.h

These would be the values calculated from the datasheet.
I think that would be especially useful for the gyros, the neutrals are not so important and the scale from the datasheet is usually good enough.
It would make it easy for those who can't calibrate the gyros (most of us don't have a turntable).
While this would not be as good as properly calibrating them, it would still just work!
