Dr.-Ing. Amilcar Do Carmo Lucas 14b214eb9b Plane: remove FS parameters default values macros.
They just add an un-necessary level of indirection in the code. The parameters are run-time configurable now.

Michael du Breuil 87c076da4d ArduPlane: Fix missing break in GCS_MAVLink
Was causing AOA_SSA to send a landing message as wel

Dr.-Ing. Amilcar Do Carmo Lucas 2f5f8eb323 Plane: Use SI units conventions in parameter units
Follow the rules from:
http://physics.nist.gov/cuu/Units/units.html
http://physics.nist.gov/cuu/Units/outside.html
and
http://physics.nist.gov/cuu/Units/checklist.html
one further constrain is that only printable (7bit) ASCII characters are allowed

Michael du Breuil 92d505598b ArduPlane: Poll AP_Landing for fly forward information 2017-05-15 14:50:29 -07:00
Andrew Tridgell 92f88e9b33 Plane: fixed climb rate for quadplanes in CRUISE
the high loop rate of quadplanes led to less than 1cm/loop change in
height, which got truncated to zero. Adjusting height at 10Hz fixes
that.

Thanks to Marco for reporting this!

Andrew Tridgell 6eaad59115 Plane: improve vectored tailsitter takeoff
this gives extra pitch input when taking off a vectored tailsitter,
allowing the motors to point straight up for easy takeoff

thanks to Leonard for the idea!

Andrew Tridgell a46799d34e Plane: removed AP_Airspeed from vehicle code 2017-05-04 22:59:02 -07:00
André Kjellstrup 21b8d3cb3d Plane: Removed scary autotakeoff message.
This message does not provide anything useful, but is rather scary to
get moments before launch.
If it's somehow meant to provide useful information, or an action "Timer
interrupted AUTO" should be replaced by something else.

Peter Barker 378015691b Plane: stop appending lf to PERF message 2017-05-01 16:21:55 +01:00
Peter Barker 084242cf03 Plane: move init of DataFlash references into vehicle init
It is possible to start a log before the existing codepath is crossed.

Andrew Tridgell 2706c9d57a Plane: use common send_queued_parameters() 2017-05-01 14:36:10 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 351304ebcb Plane: don't set fly-forward when transitioning
when quad motors are providing assistance don't see the fly-forward
flag in the AHRS. This will lower the chance of EKF yaw confusion
2017-05-01 14:27:45 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 3eeff938b0 Plane: call BoardConfig.init_safety() at end of startup
this fixes a bug where motors can start on soft reboot
2017-04-30 21:47:04 +10:00
Mark Whitehorn dc10675965 ArduPlane: suppress differential thrust when throttle is zero
this prevents motors from spinning when disarming in FBWA

Andrew Tridgell 5a57aafb98 Plane: reduce pitch demand on takeoff on roll error 2017-04-28 16:34:33 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 954905e0eb Plane: allow battery failsafe with usb connected
some people connect USB to allow connections from a companion
computer. The arming check is sufficient to prevent unwanted battery
failsafes when bench testing

Andrew Tridgell 888edcd709 Plane: fixed duplicate include of AP_ADC library 2017-04-27 18:32:26 +10:00

Andrew Tridgell 06b0742481 Plane: fixed jump in qhover on takeoff
Z controller PID is from -1 to 1

thanks to Leonard for spotting this

Andrew Tridgell b9debba509 Plane: make ground test easier for tilt 2017-04-24 16:55:41 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 76870f8e01 Plane: improve fast/slow tilt in ground tests
when disarmed use the slow tilts so users can judge the rates it will
use in flight

Andrew Tridgell aab20317a0 Plane: fixed position control in QLAND_FINAL 2017-04-24 16:55:41 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell b1f1ace736 Plane: support vectored yaw tiltrotors
this adds support for tiltrotors which control yaw by vectoring the
forward motors. This avoids the need for the rear motor on a
tilt-tricopter to have a tilt servo

Andrew Tridgell fedabd1ace Plane: added logging of quadplane desired yaw
makes analysis of takeoffs easier
2017-04-24 16:52:16 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 2d9c3e3d93 Plane: added EKF yaw reset handling to quadplane
this follows the implementation from copter. Thanks to Leonard for the
suggestion

Andrew Tridgell 516bf26719 Plane: fixed QRTL change when coming from loiter
the nav controller can think we have already reached the loiter target
if we were last in a LOITER when we switch to RTL. In that case it
would switch to QRTL immediately

found by Leonard (thanks!)

Andrew Tridgell be1b50d6e2 Plane: support auto trim for separate elevon and vtail channels
this supports SERVO_AUTO_TRIM=1 for elevons and vtails setup using the
new separate functions
2017-04-24 16:26:08 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell b4ffcfa6bd Plane: added support for elevon and vtail servo functions
these make trimming and limiting servo movement easier

Eugene Shamaev ca84ab36be Plane: AOA and SSA estimations are added to parameters and data logs 2017-04-19 20:48:42 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 88e02c7b35 Plane: log the throttle mix for quadplane copter control 2017-04-19 09:08:43 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 8e3f8f47c8 Plane: tilt motors fast in final stages of quadplane transition
when transition of tilt quadplane has reached the stage where the tilted
motors are used solely for fwd thrust and rear motors are off we should
move the tilt to full forward rapidly

Tom Pittenger 5b47927937 Plane: pre-launch flaps incorrectly always disabled
Pre-launch flaps are always disabled by checking current state against zero (which it always will be) instead of the param which is what it was supposed to be checking.
