This initialisation code should be moved to init_ardupilot and/or into the AP_Mount library.
 2012-07-18 23:49:09 +09:00
Michael Oborne 636fcadde4 fix rc libray param gen 2012-07-18 07:03:39 +08:00

 2012-07-15 16:36:05 +09:00
rmackay9 793fb7f059 ArduCopter: added definition for yaw channels. 
APM1 uses channel 11 for camera's yaw servo, APM2 uses channel 8.  This should allow all frame types except octacopters to potentially use a 3 axis camera mount.

Jason Short e31a1d969f Inertial Nav disabled by default 2012-06-13 22:37:52 -07:00
Jason Short c42f9ece43 Inertial Control 
I added inertial navigation based on the simulator data. This is an option only available if you compile with Arduino and set
#define INERTIAL_NAV ENABLED
in the APM_Config.h file.

This has been tested for one real flight and did not crash my quad, but consider it very alpha. The quad may be unpredictable at first until the error correction fixes poorly calibrated accels. Be Careful.

Most of the real work is in the inertia file, but the error correction, new variable defines and calibration calls are sprinkled throughout.

The Log should record RAW messages with special debugging values.
