Description
#### Issue details
To support landing locations at a different altitude than launch, the baro.alt - lidar.alt delta sanity check was removed. This allows noisy sensors to control the aircraft with invalid ranges (such as flaring at 50m). Not all sensors are created equal. We need more configuration options to sanity check some sensors more than others. Suggestion: have the sonr.cnt value threshold be a param. Soem sensors need it to be large, such as 30 (3 seconds of continuous good data).
