this ensures compatibility with existing configs
 2013-05-25 19:15:47 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell c81421e275 Plane: added MIXING_GAIN parameter 
this allows for the full range of output on both channels, but can
saturate
 2013-05-25 18:28:13 +10:00

set to 1 for the new APM_Control library
 2013-05-05 21:51:09 +10:00
Paul Riseborough 663951d9a7 Plane: rename APM_Control parameters 
this groups the parameters more logically
 2013-05-05 21:51:08 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 0d97f417ec Plane: enable compass on all boards by default 
if not present, then mag init will fail and it will disable
 2013-05-02 15:01:33 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell de3fcbc413 Plane: removed the MANUAL_LEVEL option 
levelling on every startup is far too error prone. This was just
another parameter that everyone changed.
 2013-04-29 14:19:53 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 3d7a4d0e6e Plane: added ELEVON_OUTPUT option 
this is like the vtail mixer, but for elevons
 2013-04-29 12:13:59 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 0b8c2da4df Plane: support 12 output channels on PX4 2013-04-25 20:10:53 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 994d8e354a Plane: allow for negative WP_LOITER_RAD for conter-clockwise loiter 
this follows the same convention as missions
 2013-04-15 10:52:32 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 78538d0543 Plane: removed old HDNG2RLL PID control 
not used with L1
 2013-04-15 10:52:32 +10:00
priseborough 70a186464b Plane: added LEVEL_ROLL_LIMIT parameter 
this replaces both TKOFF_HEAD_HOLD and RUDDER_STEER, allowing users to
instead select a roll limit for takeoff and landing
 2013-04-12 21:59:52 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 11eb0cfce1 Plane: update for new AP_Navigation controller class 
this switches ArduPlane over to use the L1 navigation controller, via
a generic nav_controller object pointer.

Note that the nav_controller controls all types of navigation now,
including level flight and heading hold. This provides a cleaner
abstraction than the old method of special case navigation handling

Pair-Programmed-With: Paul Riseborough <p_riseborough@live.com.au>
 2013-04-12 12:48:09 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 71f6287388 Plane: fixed spelling 2013-04-06 17:42:20 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 993154ea59 Plane: expand the VTAIL_OUTPUT docs for APM1 2013-04-05 16:38:46 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 406921faf1 Plane: added VTAIL_OUTPUT option 
this allows for software vtail mixing
 2013-04-05 15:22:11 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 2506c216dd Plane: added a second type of stick mixing 
this changes STICK_MIXING from a boolean to a tri-state. With
STICK_MIXING=1 it now uses FBW style mixing. With STICK_MIXING=2 it
uses the old style of direct stick mixing.
 2013-04-02 08:52:56 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 624ebced38 Plane: document INVERTEDFLT_CH 2013-04-01 22:17:04 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell dfb14d760b Plane: added HIL_SERVOS option 
this allows for real servo output in HIL
 2013-03-30 14:38:43 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 7db7d7db77 Plane: change FBWB altitude control algorithm 
this makes FBWB much less sensitive to airframe tuning. When the
elevator stick first goes neutral it locks in the current altitude as
the target altitude. When the elevator stick is off neutral, it moves
the target altitude in proportion to the elevator, at a rate goverened
by the new FBWB_CLIMB_RATE parameter

This prevents the aircraft from slowly drifting in altitude in FBWB,
and gives a more intuitive control mechanism for altitude.

Thanks to Chris Miser from Falcon UAV for help in designing this
change
 2013-03-28 10:27:25 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell f077f54e6a Plane: added TKOFF_HEAD_HOLD option 
this allows control over whether ArduPlane tries to hold heading
during auto takeoff. For hand launches it can be better to hold the
wings level and not attempt to hold heading during takeoff to prevent
the possibility of a stall during the climb out.

Thanks to Chris Miser from Falcon UAV for the feedback that led to
this option.
 2013-03-27 10:27:14 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 0a385cc0ff Plane: added TKOFF_THR_MINACC option 
this is used for triggering auto takeoff with a hand launched plane
 2013-03-09 14:41:04 +11:00
Michael Warren 9697ff5d6d Plane: Added extra parameter to specify at what speed in auto-takeoff throttle should engage 
This adds TKOFF_THR_MINSPD in m/s
 2013-03-09 14:19:48 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell e0e22b63a7 Plane: removed INPUT_VOLTS parameter 
no longer needed
 2013-03-08 10:01:33 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 5f4c5f8201 Plane: update SERIAL0_BAUD parameter description 2013-02-22 08:39:02 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 86f667f6cc Plane: added new SERIAL0_BAUD parameter 
this is useful on PX4
 2013-01-13 07:39:40 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell b6295c12e1 Plane: fixes for new AP_Relay interface 2013-01-02 10:18:45 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 85e4f67e68 Plane: added a note about the dangers of the FS_GCS_ENABL option 2012-12-25 21:18:39 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell feca411943 Plane: added new TRAINING mode 
this mode gives manual control when the roll or pitch is within the
set limits (the same limits as FBW mode), and prevents the pilot from
flying beyond those limits, essentially a "attitude limited manual"
mode
 2012-12-20 22:41:58 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 678947c65d Plane: more fixes for SITL and new AP_Param startup 2012-12-20 14:52:29 +11:00

Andrew Tridgell 24e1af1c82 Plane: fixed sensors and attitude HIL 
we now use the Stub version of the InertialSensor driver. In sensors
HIL we can now correctly drive the AHRS code.
 2012-12-03 23:26:39 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 845dd88091 Plane: make THR_SLEWRATE docs clearer 2012-11-28 11:41:39 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 92cd631ce5 Plane: added THR_PASS_STAB parameter 
this allows direct passthru of throttle in STABILIZE and FBWA, which
is useful for nitro planes wher you have a throttle cut switch that
drops the throttle below normal minimum.
 2012-11-26 23:33:05 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 84300c85d6 APM: make it possible to run the CLI on any serial port 2012-11-21 21:41:34 +11:00

Andrew Tridgell 8652bfee8d APM: added RSSI_PIN option for receiver RSSI 
this allows you to configure the pin for receiver RSSI without
recompiling
 2012-11-06 22:04:41 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell e479af67ff APM: fixed loiter radius docs to reflect new limit 2012-10-30 16:19:24 +11:00
rmackay9 775489d658 ArduPlane: added BATT_VOLT_PIN and BATT_CURR_PIN parameters to allow support for new 3DR IV battery monitor 2012-10-13 20:51:41 +09:00
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 cebb67e1df APM: removed the unused sonar code 
when we start supporting a sonar we'll add a AP_Sonar library, like
AP_Airspeed
 2012-09-19 19:35:22 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 2324997e16 APM: added ALT_OFFSET parameter 
useful to adjust for barometric pressure changes during a long flight
 2012-09-19 16:23:25 +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 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 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 9a987ce116 APM: fixed docs for LIM_PITCH_MIN 2012-08-30 14:55:08 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell f6c3197cd2 APM: added new TELEM_DELAY parameter 
number of seconds to delay telemetry
 2012-08-30 08:59:39 +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 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 d445482ace APM: added optional use of new APM_Control library 
thanks to Jon Challinger for the new controllers!

rmackay9 6d489947cf ArduPlane: replaced many "int" with "int16_t", "long" with "int32_t" 2012-08-18 18:26:13 +09:00
Andrew Tridgell 5e690d5680 APM: added parameter FBWB_ELEV_REV 
this fixes issue 343
 2012-08-17 15:04:53 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell ad73c229ab APM: added LAND_FLARE_ALT and LAND_FLARE_SEC 
these allow you to configure the altitude and time before touchdown to
flare the plane and lock the heading. Useful on larger planes.
 2012-08-15 18:11:16 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 1252ddfe0c APM: rename RDRSTEER to WHEELSTEER 
thanks to Jon for the suggestion
 2012-08-15 16:28:59 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell e26e8b3b67 APM: added RDRSTEER_ PID for steering on ground 
this allows for rolling takeoff with steering, and use of rudder in
landing
 2012-08-15 12:39:35 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 817017658d APM: implement FENCE_ACTION_REPORT 
when FENCE_ACTION is set to FENCE_ACTION_REPORT a fence breach is
reported, but the flight mode is not changed
 2012-08-15 12:39:35 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 2865434d02 APM: added 'OBC' failsafe module for ArduPlane 
this adds FS_* parameters for setting up APM to follow the outback
challenge failsafe rules.

This includes:

 - manual pin
 - heartbeat pin
 - waypoint for heartbeat failure
 - waypoint for GPS failure
 2012-08-15 12:39:34 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 3bdc7d41be INS: disable INS AP_Param table when not on APM1 hardware 
this could cause overwriting of memory with default values
 2012-08-11 22:06:03 +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 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 d34549f386 Add an optional second mount to ArduPlane and ArduCopter 2012-08-08 23:22:24 +02:00
Andrew Tridgell 5bfd1200d6 APM: change variables to use _cm, _cd and _ms suffix for units 
this makes it less likely that we mix up units
 2012-08-08 12:12:30 +10:00

 2012-07-28 19:50:40 +09:00
rmackay9 842ce47219 ArduPlane: change to Parameters.pde to support moving var_info from AP_AHRS to AP_AHRS_DCM 2012-07-28 14:31:01 +09:00
Andrew Tridgell 6bcfe913f7 APM: added a SCALING_SPEED parameter 
this allows users to adjust the base speed used for scaling roll/pitch
PIDs. This can be used to make PIDs work for both airspeed and
non-airspeed control
 2012-07-26 11:30:23 +10:00

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.
