Andrew Tridgell 8c0296b27a APM: fixed additional aileron channels in manual mode 2012-10-31 12:43:53 +11:00
Xichen Shi 8c46fced16 APM: Added functionality to use differential spoilers in elevon mode 
spoiler 1 and 2 are connected to 2 auxiliary channels, functions are
set to 16 on left wing and 17 om right wing respectively. Worked in
FBW + mode (auto etc.). No manual mode supported yet (need more
channels in my case).

rmackay9 8c6fd340d7 AP_AHRS: added scheduler parameter to init 
Required by the AP_AHRS_MPU6000 class which needs to disable timed processes that could interfere with it's communication with the mpu6000
 2012-09-29 13:51:21 +09:00
rmackay9 41fbb19cf5 AP_InertialSensor_MPU6000: replaced _cs_pin parameter with #define and saved 1 byte of memory 
Updated ArduCopter, ArduPlane and example sketches in AP_InertialSensor, AP_IMU and AP_AHRS libraries because they no longer need to pass in cs_pin to the constructor
 2012-09-28 19:21:59 +09:00
Andrew Tridgell bbec662483 APM: fixed build warning 2012-09-25 07:21:03 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell fbc053e6e4 APM: change to one low priority status buffer per GCS instance

 2012-09-22 20:17:13 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 6bae5ecd51 APM: added THR_SUPP_MAN option 
this allows for manual throttle control during auto throttle
suppression. This is useful for keeping a petrol engine idling before
takeoff
 2012-09-22 20:17:06 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 5c402fa398 APM: allow RawSensors stream rate to be saved if <= 5 
this makes it possible to configure all stream rates via a parameter
file
 2012-09-22 20:17:02 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 63940d3ab6 APM: don't send GPS_STATUS MAVLink message 
it now provides no useful information as satellites_visible is in
GPS_RAW_INT in MAVLink 1.0
 2012-09-22 20:12:43 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell cbc4a57abb APM: send airspeed sensor value, not estimate, when enabled 
this solves the problem of people reporting that airspeed is not shown
when ARSPD_USE is zero.
 2012-09-20 08:00:54 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 832c5e996e APM: make it possible to fetch parameters by index 2012-09-20 07:42:46 +10:00

Andrew Tridgell c0798730a8 APM: only copy manual channels in failsafe 
this prevents non-manual channels changing value away from the trim
value on startup
 2012-09-16 15:51:01 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 127117b640 APM: ensure DO_SET_SERVO channels are enabled 2012-09-16 15:08:14 +10:00

this was broken in 2.61
 2012-09-13 12:01:40 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 6e9abb616a APM: show real raw RC input, not mixed input 
this makes it easier to diagnose elevon mixing issues
 2012-09-13 12:00:49 +10:00

Andrew Tridgell 5f3ffe4839 APM: switch to Randys new IMU rate control method 
this drives the speed of the 50Hz loop by the number of samples
accumulated in the IMU. This should give much more consistent timing
in DCM.

Thanks to Randy for introducing this scheme in ArduCopter!
 2012-09-11 16:39:36 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 7e672628ea APM: removed the GPS_enabled flag 
this fixes using GPS_PROTOCOL to specify a specific GPS with a GPS
that takes a few updates before it works (eg. needing baud rate
changes).

This makes it easier to use an APM1-1280 with more features enabled
 2012-09-11 13:37:34 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell c9a299665c APM: added speed scaling to wheeled steering 
this allows for a larger amount of steering control at low speeds
without causing osciallation after takeoff
 2012-09-11 13:37:34 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 0812fc4890 APM: reboot only works on the APM2 2012-09-10 11:50:48 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell cb88681914 APM: added support for MAV_CMD_PREFLIGHT_REBOOT_SHUTDOWN 
this allows for remote reboot of APM
 2012-09-10 11:42:30 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell e2779523ea APM: fixed fetch of relative altitude waypoints 
when we fetch relative altitude waypoints from APM to a file, we need
to preserve the altitude
 2012-09-10 09:40:29 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell feb3fe77ce APM: simplify radio_trim code 
this removes the duplicate code. Throttle trim is not changed.
 2012-09-09 19:39:09 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 5c3595e0dc APM: fixed throttle nudging 
The nudge value depended on RC3_TRIM, which is not a reliable
value. It tried to only take effect when the throttle stick was above
50%, but if RC3_TRIM was high for some reason (say 1500) then it would
actually depress the throttle by a large amount, which could cause the
plane to stall.

This also adds a boolean option THROTTLE_NUDGE to allow disabling of
throttle nudging
 2012-09-09 19:39:04 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 657dd5969f APM: preparing for 2.61 release 2012-09-08 18:36:17 +10:00

useful for testing non-auto gps detection
 2012-09-08 12:43:36 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell f26b9ab286 APM: prevent crosstrack from takeoff point after takeoff completion 2012-09-08 11:37:14 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell dec12c7370 APM: use ahrs.airspeed_estimate() in two more places 
this applies the wind constraint
 2012-09-08 11:37:11 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell cde7d8c5e7 APM: fixed some compiler warnings 2012-09-08 10:14:32 +10:00

Andrew Tridgell 164c60d25f APM: added RUDDER_STEER option 
when enabled, this uses only the rudder to steer during takeoff and
landing, using aileron only for levelling
 2012-09-08 10:07:03 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 130b26e1f9 APM: support DO_SET_SERVO command 2012-09-08 10:06:53 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 96ea350143 APM: added XTRK_MIN_DIST option 
this allows you to disable crosstrack correction on short legs
 2012-09-08 10:06:44 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell a446a7a9ed APM: allow serial buffer size to be configured 
very useful for packet forwarding setups
 2012-09-08 10:06:35 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 9b2ad55773 APM: added forwarding of unknown MAVLink types 2012-09-08 10:06:15 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 68705fe7e6 APM: accumulate mag readings during spare cycles in ArduPlane 
With this change we average over 100 mag readings per compass.read()
call, which means we are reading the compass at over 1kHz instead of
10Hz. The noise reduction is huge.
 2012-09-08 10:05:58 +10:00
Michael Oborne cd08420c3e AP fix takeoff alt issue 
issue 733
 2012-09-06 20:19:12 +08:00
Pat Hickey b02340fe10 APM_Config.h for ArduCopter/ArduPlane: better descr of APM2_BETA_HARDWARE 2012-09-05 15:36:57 -07:00
Andrew Tridgell 83153eebd4 APM: obey pitch limits in FBWA as well 
this means pitch limits are constrained by LIM_PITCH_MIN and
LIM_PITCH_MAX
 2012-08-30 20:15:42 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 9a987ce116 APM: fixed docs for LIM_PITCH_MIN 2012-08-30 14:55:08 +10:00
Michael Oborne 1e7adac365 AP fix attitude hil. 
we where waiting on new_data that had no way of getting there.
 2012-08-30 07:54:20 +08:00
Andrew Tridgell f6c3197cd2 APM: added new TELEM_DELAY parameter 
number of seconds to delay telemetry
 2012-08-30 08:59:39 +10:00
Craig Elder 4ad516c445 Arducopter: increased MAVLINK delay to 6s to reduce the chance of xBee bricking 
Arduplane:  increased MAVLINK delay to 6s to reduce the chance of xBee bricking
Ardurover:  increased MAVLINK delay to 6s to reduce the chance of xBee bricking
 2012-08-28 20:09:10 -07:00
Andrew Tridgell e2b8817a89 APM: added the ability to forcibly crash the plane on OBC failsafe breach 
this allows a user to setup the OBC failsafe system to forcibly crash
the plane (surfaces at limits, zero throttle) when the failsafe system
triggers. This is to allow APM to be used in the Outback Challenge. In
the OBC an external failsafe board also does this using the heartbeat
control pin, so this is an extra safety mechanism.

To prevent users accidentially triggering a crash, this code only
activates if FS_TERM_ACTION is set to to the magic value 42.
 2012-08-28 20:18:24 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell fce01464b1 APM: added ALT_CTRL_ALG parameter 
this allows you to select different altitude control algorithms. The
current choices are for the default (automatic based on if airspeed is
available), or to force a non-airspeed algorithm

The idea is to make it possible to use airspeed for some things (like
wind speed, speed scaling) but not for alt control
 2012-08-28 20:18:24 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 85e9fa8c3b APM: fixed another problem with DO_JUMP 
off by one error!
 2012-08-28 20:18:24 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell ded64fd9ea APM: check for geofence fence total of 0 2012-08-28 20:18:24 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell d13d117e61 APM: removed reset_I() and instead auto-reset integrator in PID library 
this prevents us resetting key integrators on waypoint change, while
still preventing old integrators being used when a PID starts to be
used again
 2012-08-28 20:18:23 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell dcbd0fbd44 APM: cleanup throttle suppression code and don't use airspeed to unsupress 
this removes the throttle suppression when any of the conditions are
met once, as otherwise flying slow below 10m could zero the throttle.

It also removes the use of airspeed for disabling throttle
supression. Otherwise a strong gust of wind can cause ArduPlane to
try to takeoff!
 2012-08-28 20:18:23 +10:00
Amilcar Lucas b48a1f1fc4 ArduPlane: Fix 1280 builds 
Added fine-granular features in the AP_Mount class to reduce code size on 1280 chips

Andrew Tridgell c9cf483822 APM: added XTRK_USE_WIND parameter 
when enabled this will use the wind estimation code to adjust the
navigation bearing, allowing the navigation code to cope with much
higher levels of wind while using a compass
 2012-08-25 17:49:26 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell abe5bbfa4d APM: support forcing MANUAL of FBWA mode over MAVLink 2012-08-24 15:18:22 +10:00

reset to 0
 2012-08-22 15:29:46 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 6ab2a861f7 APM: added RSSI to RC_CHANNELS_RAW as well 
and prevent double read
 2012-08-22 13:58:25 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 2d5bb7c51b APM: added RSSI in raw message too 2012-08-22 13:48:09 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell c0c0b8c976 APM: added RECEIVER_RSSI_PIN option 
this allows for the receiver RSSI to be sent over MAVLink

Thanks to Burt Green for the suggestion
 2012-08-22 13:33:12 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell d445482ace APM: added optional use of new APM_Control library

element
 2012-08-15 12:39:34 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 93f1d5645b APM: fixed LOITER_TIME and LOITER_TURNS 
These now follow the mavlink spec. Loiter time is in seconds, and
loiter turns is now 32 bit angle, so can handle larger numbers of
turns.
 2012-08-15 12:39:34 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 3bdc7d41be INS: disable INS AP_Param table when not on APM1 hardware

Andrew Tridgell 0ffc89d512 APM: support the MISSION_WRITE_PARTIAL_LIST command 
this allows missions to be partially updated in flight
 2012-08-09 17:13:36 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell dc47074dbd MAVLink: removed the need for Mavlink_compat.h 
we have now fully transitioned to MAVLink 1.0, so we no longer need
the compatibility layer and the old names in the code
 2012-08-09 12:22:46 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 2a7b298bbc MAVLink: moved mavlink variables back to library 
these were moved to the main sketches to allow for compile time
selection of MAVLink 0.9 vs 1.0. We no longer support 0.9, so we can
move it back, which simplifies some test sketches
 2012-08-09 12:06:21 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 5498d347f3 APM: Added RST_MISSION_CH option 
this allows a pilot to reset the mission using a transmitter
switch. Very useful for repeating a mission during testing
 2012-08-09 10:33:16 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell e2c8ec2c9e APM: removed THROTTLE_REVERSE option 
Better to use RC3_REV
 2012-08-09 10:04:44 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell e133900c68 APM: Added STICK_MIXING option 
this replaces the compile time option. Disabling during long distance
flights when the transmitter may be out of range is useful.

Amilcar Lucas 82b82283be ATmega1280 does not have enough memory for mount support so disable AUTO GPS support, to allow mount support to fit. 
This should almost have no side effects, because the most users use MTK anyways.
If the user defined a GPS protocol, than we will NOT overwrite it
 2012-08-04 16:32:20 +02:00
Andrew Tridgell 301ab00c5b APM: added control switch debouncer 
this adds a switch debouncer, similar to the one used in
ArduCopter. I'm adding this after a flight on the weekend where noise
on the control mode channel caused a mode change away from auto.

To prevent this change adding excessive mode switch latency, it also
moves the reading of the control switch to the 10Hz loop, away from
the 3.3Hz loop. That gives us 0.2s delay in mode switch changes and
allows for spikes in the control mode for 0.1 seconds without changing
mode.

calculation

Jonathan Challinger d9d055ef78 APM: Removed incorrect nav_gain_scaler from nav_roll calculation. 
nav_gain_scaler was originally added due to a perceived improvement in
loiter performance, but is incorrect for navigation. Turn rate is a

Pat Hickey 1c00d1ffe3 ArduPlane: Fix effect of ELEVON_REVERSE 
* Previously, the ELEVON_REVERSE parameter was equivelant in function to the
  ELEVON_CH1_REVERSE parameter. These parameter values are found in
  g.reverse_elevons and g.reverse_ch1_elevon, and used to map to the radio_out
  channels in ArduPlane/Attitude.pde
* It seems the author's intent was for ELEVON_REVERSE to change the sign for
  the combination of pitch & roll into ch1 & ch2, as there are already
  parameters which change just the sign of ch1 and just the sign of ch2.
* Discovered this bug because I happened to build an elevon airframe which was
  not possible to setup with the existing ELEVON_ and RCn_REV parameters.
* This will break existing elevon setups if the user used ELEVON_REVERSE
  instead of ELEVON_CH1_REVERSE, since they were previously interchangable.

aerial photo processing to be more accurate, as the usec field with
more accurately reflect the planes position/time pair

Andrew Tridgell b3aa704c49 AirSpeed: added parameter ARSPD_USE 
setting ARSPD_ENABLE to 1 and ARSPD_USE to 0 allows the airspeed
sensor to be initialised and logged without it being used for flight
control. This is very useful when initially testing an airspeed sensor
in a new plane. It also makes it possible to enable/disable the use of
the airspeed sensor during a flight at any time.

Andrew Tridgell e0bb7e2777 MAVLink: don't waste 100 bytes of bandwidth sending 1 byte of information 
the GPS_STATUS message is a massive waste of bandwidth, but it is the

send it if that information changes.

This makes MAVLink work better at low baud rates

Andrew Tridgell b4107d35e8 MAVLink: raise the serial transmit buffer size to 256 bytes 
the 128 byte serial transmit buffer was causing significant problems
with queueing of mavlink messages. With 256 bytes we can fit a lot
more messages out in each pass of the code, which makes telemetry more
efficient

As we discussed on the dev call, we now have enough free ram for this
to be worthwhile

Andrew Tridgell 0248b48d30 allow MAG_ENABLE to be changed in flight 
this disables the compass in DCM if MAG_ENABLE is changed in
flight. Without this we would use a fixed yaw once the compass is
disabled

This also makes sure we don't pass the compass to DCM till we have
done a read. This ensures we have a good compass fix for the initial
DCM heading

Andrew Tridgell c14097ffa1 APM: changed hold_course for landing to be based on yaw_sensor 
when we are in the final stages of a landing (less than 2 seconds from
landing waypoint, or less than 3m above landing altitude) we switch
the navigation to use a fixed course. The code previously used the
crosstrack_bearing for this, but this can lead to a large nav_roll in
this final stage of the approach, which can put a wing into the
runway. In autotest we were seeing a nav_roll value of -45 degrees as
we crossed the transition point for the landing, which often led to a
crash.

This changes the code to use the current yaw_sensor value instead,
which is much less likely to lead to large rolls in the final landing
stages.
 2012-02-15 08:50:45 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell c662140a2b APM: report the nav_bearing as hold_course when enabled 
this gives a more accurate view of the navigation code, as when

 2012-02-15 08:50:45 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 330ff5dc8b APM: added some comments related to hold_course 
hold_course is either -1 (for disabled) or a course to hold for
takeoff/landing. This makes the code a bit clearer.

It also resets hold_course in all non-auto modes, to ensure it isn't
used
 2012-02-15 08:50:45 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 11835508a7 when setting airspeed and groundspeed in a mission, don't save to EEPROM 
If you include airspeed, throttle or groundspeed changes in a mission
then those should not be saved to EEPROM, as otherwise if you restart
and re-fly the mission you will be starting with different parameters
to the ones you used for the first flight.

This is particularly important for setting the target airspeed when
coming in for a landing. You typically set a low target, but if you
fly again the next day I think it would be a real surprise to find
that your loiter airspeed has then changed to the value from the
landing part of your last mission.

This one can be argued either way, but I think that not saving these
changes is the more conservative choice, and better fits the
'principal of least surprise'
