The PSTR is already define as a NOP for all supported platforms. It's
only needed for AVR so here we remove all the uses throughout the
codebase.
This was automated with a simple python script so it also converts
places which spans to multiple lines, removing the matching parentheses.
AVR-specific places were not changed.
- inhibit switching from FLIGHT_NORMAL to FLIGHT_LAND_APPROACH until we meet stricter criteria other than just that LAND is next waypoint
- requires: nav bearing error < 10deg && have traveled path forward 30% of path && are below top of approach in case we hit waypoint while still descending
- exceptions: traveled path forward > 80% which basically means we're getting close to the flare point and better get into approach mode ASAP
Include board-specific files only when the board is used. Since these
should be exceptional cases, let the includer handle the ifdef instead
of putting ifdefs in every platform-specific header.
In the future we should evaluate whether the HAL for the board should
instantiate this.
Instead of requiring every program to specify the HAL related modules,
let the build system do it (in practice everything we compiled depended
on HAL anyway). This allow including only the necessary files in the
compilation.
The switching between different AP_HAL was happening by giving different
definitions of AP_HAL_BOARD_DRIVER, and the programs would use it to
instantiate.
A program or library code would have to explicitly include (and depend)
on the concrete implementation of the HAL, even when using it only via
interface.
The proposed change move this dependency to be link time. There is a
AP_HAL::get_HAL() function that is used by the client code. Each
implementation of HAL provides its own definition of this function,
returning the appropriate concrete instance.
Since this replaces the job of AP_HAL_BOARD_DRIVER, the definition was
removed.
The static variables for PX4 and VRBRAIN were named differently to avoid
shadowing the extern symbol 'hal'.
we only accept a lidar if it changes by 5% of its full range, and we
reject a lidar again if the correction between barometric and lidar
range changes by more than 30m
This allows us to cope with faulty lidars which may give a constant
reading
when aborting a landing via mode change, check if NAV_CONTINUE_AND_CHANGE_ALT is after LAND. If so, go ahead and execute it. Else, normal behavior or check do_land_start else decrement mission index
- previously we only kept track of starting flying while in auto which gets reset when switching in and out of auto and on takeoff/land. Now we keep track of a "global" one that will track the is_flying flag regardless of the flight mode.
fixes https://github.com/diydrones/ardupilot/issues/2778
When executing a takeoff, and the throttle is suppressed, but we're already flying, we should unsuppress the throttle. We can get into this situation if we reset the mission in-flight.
- enabled via new param LAND_ABORT_THR default is 0 (disabled)
- Triggered via 95% throttle during landing, a landing abort will take place.
- This copies all takeoff params for right now, we can make this better later if needed
- added mission item command to NAV_LAND which is the abort takeoff altitude. If 0 then use last takeoff if available, else use 30m
- hold heading, just like takeoff, until altitude is reached
- pitch is constrained to takeoff pitch, or else 10deg if not available
- After abort altitude is reached, the normal landing restart happens (DO_LAND_START or decrement mission)
- restart landing by jumping to DO_LAND_START or decrement mission on mode change
Use waypoint bearing if available, otherwise use gps projected ahead 1km else yaw
Perform update before making decision to finish cmd so it always executes
We don't need those comments anymore, now that we log the task name. Also,
keeping the comments means that we need to fix them when tasks are added in the
middle, not to mention the problem with tasks that are added selectively (i.e.,
guarded by preprocessor directives).
* Retains ability to read from Analog Pin
* Adds ability to read RSSI from PWM channel value as is done in OpenLRSng, EazyUHF, and various other LRS.
* Handles any type of RSSI that provides RSSI values inverted - i.e. when the low value is the best signal and the high value is the worst signal.
* Has different key names from all existing RSSI parameters to provide for a clean break and easier distinguishing.
* Existing parameters are marked as obsolete
This behavior is excessively paranoid about clearing the flag so now it's extra sticky. You can only clear the is_crashed flag when:
- changing modes
- starting to execute a takeoff wp (if mission/index gets reset while still in auto)
- while in takeoff and throttle is suppressed it's held false
behavior that was removed:
- clear flag when starting to execute any nav cmd (reached next wp)
- if while crashed, you "start flying again" (non-sticky)
due to zero-ish vibration in SITL, the is_flying check thinks you're not flying, and this thinks you crashed. This is a SITL specific problem but it brings to light that *if* someone actually had a very low vibration aircraft we don't want to crash them. So, the vibe test has been removed for now. A better test is a variance on the accel
add crash detection, allow disengage via param CRASH_DETECT
improved is_flying behavior
take off, landing and hard-landing improvements
add stillness check to is_flying and log it
minimum airspeed is determined ARSPD_FBW_MIN*0.75
Param 1 of CONTINUE_AND_CHANGE_ALT now denotes which direction the
user expects the plane to travel when changing altitude:
0 = no expectation, command completes when within 5 m of altitude.
1 = climb expected, command completes at or above altitude.
2 = descent expected, command completes at or below altitude.
