How to use roll-only gimbals

One-axis gimbals are not officially supported by the STorM32 firmware, but folks worked out how to set the controller up to get that working nevertheless.
Some general points:
- A 2nd IMU cannot be used, and must be disabled, i.e. the parameter Imu2 Configuration in the [GUI:Setup] tab must be set to “off”.
- The unused motor axis needs to be disabled, i.e. the respective parameter XXX Motor Usage in the [GUI:Setup] tab must be set to “disabled”.
In addition to these, further points have to be considered, see below.
