Jason Short 3ba6e1db7a Removed references to a takeoff timer 2012-05-29 11:28:40 -07:00
Jason Short 394f8c6eb0 pulling throttle low in flight turns out to be more common than thought. Removed clearing of takeoff_complete flag. This is still cleared during disarm which is automatic after 30 seconds of no throttle. 2012-05-29 11:25:04 -07:00
Jason Short a3a90287f4 changed the way takeoff complete is figured. Looking for high throttle. 2012-05-29 11:25:04 -07:00
Jason Short 4ed48510dc reversed circle_WP calculation so the next_WP refers to the destination around the circle and circle_WP refers to the center. The intent is to make it easier to see via ground station. 2012-05-27 09:21:20 -07:00
Jason Short e2086decc6 Arducopter.pde : setting rtl_approach_alt above 1 would force auto landing even if auto-landing was disabled. 2012-05-23 22:00:56 -07:00
Robert Lefebvre df4246597f Updates to CopterLEDS

2012-05-17 11:05:05 -07:00
Jason Short 7278e8d1e5 removed retro loiter code since Angel has a branch now.
shrank speed filter to avoid latency
removed unused forward estimator code

placed code for switchover to gps.groundspeed at 1.5m/s

added hybrid I-term based on speed error and position

changes Loiter D term to use position rather than acceleration to avoid noise

rmackay9 eaeaa3811a ArduCopter: bug fix for reversing tri servo
Extended AP_MotorsTri class to take in pointer to rc_tail servo (rc_7) and we use this servo's REV parameter to determine whether to reverse the output to the tail servo or not

Adam M Rivera 637f778dd0 ArduCopter: Updated param name from auto_land_timer to loiter_timer, because it could really be used for more routines like auto-approach. Added timer before approach (20s). 2012-04-16 10:07:57 -05:00
rmackay9 4dadd888d8 ArduCopter - CH6 Tuning - added AHRS_YAW_KP parameter as 30. Now you can easily set the amount that the mag is used to correct the gyro based yaw estimate in the DCM 2012-04-16 23:47:57 +09:00

Remove global motor_filtered and motor_out arrays.
Removed all global heli variables.
replace "motor_armed" with "motors.armed()"
removed output to rc_4 for tri because this is now handled by AP_MotorsTri class

you are using a 3DR radio

rmackay9 b0c9a25024 ArduCopter - CH6 tuning - changed Roll/Pitch Rate D tuning to use the user supplied tuning range instead of the range / 100.
also changed heli_ext_gyro_gain to make it use the tuning range directly.

Andrew Tridgell 58f539ca35 ACM: removed FORCE_AUTOMATIC_DECLINATION_UPDATE
we now have the EEPROM option COMPASS_AUTODEC instead
2012-03-30 14:25:27 +11:00
Adam M Rivera 0727955fe3 ArduCopter: Changed implementation of configuration value for automatic declination. There is now a FORCE_AUTOMATIC_DECLINATION_UPDATE that when enabled will update the declination on every GPS 3D fix regardless of whether or not the user saved a value to the EEPROM. By default the declination will only be set by the automatic declination routine if the user has not saved a declination to the EEPROM. 2012-03-30 14:25:06 +11:00
rmackay9 a12a7a7d87 ArduCopter - added CH6_STABILIZE_KD tuning value 2012-03-29 21:09:41 +09:00

        #define CH6_ACRO_KP 25
        #define CH6_YAW_RATE_KD 26
        #define CH6_LOITER_KI 27

- remove incorrect comments about when loiter target position is reset.
