rmackay9 3cbef57c64 ArduCopter: first merge of leonard's accel based altitude controller plus other changes from Randy
Changes include:
New low-level get_throttle_accel function takes target acceleration and compares vs earth-frame Z accelerometer values to produce output to motors.
Higher level throttle controllers modified to call new get_throttle_accel controller
Throttle_rate_stabilized controller added which maintains a desired climb/descent rate
Throttle_land controller added - descends using normal auto throttle controller to 10m then descends at 50cm/s
Multiple throttle modes added including landing mode
Land flight mode no longer needs GPS
Throttle cruise maintenance moved to update_throttle_cruise function

Creating Stab_Collective Function to allow for different collective ranges between Stabilize and other modes.

Robert Lefebvre 95eeda7cf7 ACM: TradHeli
Removing Angle Boost function.
Does not make sense for helis due to aerodynamics.  Can cause more problems than it solves.
2012-11-26 18:58:21 -05:00
Robert Lefebvre 8056b78c55 ACM: TradHeli
Remove Rate I-term reset when throttle stick is on the bottom.  This could be very bad for helis since it's plausible to use full downstick while flying.
There is obviously a risk here of building up a false I-term on the ground but this isn't a good solution for that anyway.
Also removed what appears to be some deadwood.
