rmackay9 1b9ed1444e ArduCopter: updated standard loiter pids.
Loiter_P (speed from distance to target) = 0.2 (was 0.35)
Loiter_Rate_P (lean angle from desired acceleration) = 2.4 (was 2.5)
Loiter_Rate_I = unchanged at 0.08
Loiter_Rate_D = 0.40 (was 0.45)

Andrew Tridgell f4718cafad GPS: re-open the serial port with a 256 byte serial receive buffer

2012-06-08 16:42:03 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell bfb2c1ee87 GPS: open the GPS serial port with a 256 byte buffer
the UBLOX needs more than 128 bytes for reliable parsing
2012-06-08 16:42:03 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell ddebf7b443 GPS: fixed the UBLOX parser to handle unknown messages
the parser was broken in several ways:

 1) when it received an unknown message it didn't update the ck_a and ck_b fields, so it
    thought the message had a bad checksum, which meant it got out of protocol sync

 2) the read() method would return false if the last message from the GPS was of an unknown type. 
    So we relied on the last msg always being one that we understand and want

 3) the parser considered any valid UBLOX message to be 'new data', whereas we only actually get 
    a new fix when we get box a new position and velned message

 4) the total message size per update is more than 128 bytes, but the serial port was opened 
    with only a 128 byte buffer, so we got corruption regularly

Jason Short 71111a5816 Stabilization patches
removed Angle error limit for stabilization
constricted Iterm to +- 5° error and limited the implementation to when the quad is +- 5° from center
doubled the output limit for Rate controller.
increased default Rate_P gain to .18 with matching Rate_D of .004
Tested in the SIM and in backyard. dramatically increases performance and quad no longer overshoots and flips when pushed hard.
