Just a suggestion, you shouldn't rely on *magic* numbers like 3.1415. In my
opinion it's not good practice. I use this method.

const float pi = (atan(1)*4);

You then can go pi/180 or what ever, this method is also alot more accurate
IMHO, plus it makes the code easier to understand. Just suggestions not
trying to make anyone mad.
