Before: -> After
Stabilize P –> Stabilize P (Use NG values, or 8.3 x the older AC2 value)
Stabilize I –> Stabilize I (Stays same value)
Stabilize D –> Rate P (Stays same value)
–> Rate I (new)
Added a new value – an I term for rate. The old stabilization routines did not use this term. Please refer to the config.h file to read more about the new PIDs.
Added framework for using DCM corrected Accelerometer rates. Code is commented out for now.
Added set home at Arming.
Crosstrack is now a full PID loop, rather than just a P gain for more control.
Throttle now slews when switching out of Alt hold or Auto modes for less jarring transitions
Sonar and Baro PIDs are now combined into a throttle PID Yaw control is completely re-written.
Added Octa_Quad support - Max

Slighted tuned down D term in Loiter PIDs after testing, tuned up P slightly
fixed alt hold bug cause when gaining 3D lock in alt hold.
Mavlink now reports correct throttle scaling value in mavlink

new Loiter PIDs
tuned down control on standard frame
shunk the mixing range for sonar from 3 meters to 2 meters
added framework for Guided mode - not tested!
removed pitch and roll deadzone
decoupled SIMPLE mode from LOITER PIDs
Synced Mavlink with APM
Logs report correct WP number now.
disabled Sonar spike filter.

Reverted to prior Rangefinderlib in case that was causing bad sonar readings.
reduced crosstrack gains and max angle to avoid overshoots and oscillations.
added additional D gain to Loiter hold to prevent overshoots
added D gain to WP_nav to avoid speed oscillations
upped navigation speed to 6m/s from 4.5m/s

Fixed Mavlink issue
Added look at home option for SIMPLE mode. Off be default. Untested.
Upped performance of Yaw.
git-svn-id: https://arducopter.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@2695 f9c3cf11-9bcb-44bc-f272-b75c42450872
Fixed GCS updates,
Clear GCS Streamrates by default.
moved fast PWM functions to run all the time (for quads, experiment)
cleaned up Mavlink a bit.
git-svn-id: https://arducopter.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@2678 f9c3cf11-9bcb-44bc-f272-b75c42450872
changed Yaw to be offset from current angle to avoid the kick back.
Made minimum motor speed user settable, upped to 13% (130)
tweaked alt hold D to be higher and P to be slightly lower.
git-svn-id: https://arducopter.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@2579 f9c3cf11-9bcb-44bc-f272-b75c42450872
Includes updated motor tests. These need to be verified.
Nav loiter D was added (.03) - verify this helps.
Nav_lat is now filtered for Rate control. This is to keep jerky pitching to a minimum.
git-svn-id: https://arducopter.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@2448 f9c3cf11-9bcb-44bc-f272-b75c42450872
Made minor change in Loiter to check something.
Motor LEDs enabled. Let me know if they work OK.
Armed Motors is now Solid to match GPS behavior.
git-svn-id: https://arducopter.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@2421 f9c3cf11-9bcb-44bc-f272-b75c42450872
Added Octo Support
Fixed Loiter issue regarding Yaw towards loiter location
Added Yaw control alternative for testing
decreased Yaw deadband to +-5°
revved to 2.0.10

Cleanups, better logs for Alt hold, yaw debugging
I tuned up Hein's Hexa Yaw. I think we may need to adjust Yaw gains based on Frame type.
Crossing fingers, the next rev is the final.
git-svn-id: https://arducopter.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@2381 f9c3cf11-9bcb-44bc-f272-b75c42450872
updated motor setup test to be sequencial pulses of the motors in CW order.
Fixed Mission scripting logic
fixed Free yaw error in neutral throttle
fixed D term issue with Baro hold - was too high
incremented firmware revision, removed frame var
removed setup show from startup
removed unused EEPROM functions
fixed broken demo mission
fixed non working loiter with delay
git-svn-id: https://arducopter.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@2275 f9c3cf11-9bcb-44bc-f272-b75c42450872
better handling of sonar at angles and baro mixing. - optimized for flats.
Crosstrack test bug found and fixed.
git-svn-id: https://arducopter.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@1916 f9c3cf11-9bcb-44bc-f272-b75c42450872
Takeoff now works well.
better logging.
tuned down kD for Yaw - was causing some bad behavior.
Auto mission now resets when entering mode.
git-svn-id: https://arducopter.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@1914 f9c3cf11-9bcb-44bc-f272-b75c42450872
Logs updated to do better Yaw Debugging
Landing is now rate limited
updated command desctiption.

I have moved Pitch_Max to a different part of the code. It was limiting SIMPLE mode which was bad. Now it only limits in Auto modes, RTL, LOITER, etc.
