Randy Mackay ccaa7a52ef Copter: RTL bug fix to initial step is always a climb and not a descent 
Also bug fix to hold yaw on take-off
 2013-01-15 12:17:52 +09:00
Randy Mackay 2dab40abeb Copter: bug fix to altitude check of verify takeoff 
set_next_WP function was not setting the alt_change_flag properly

Randy Mackay 8bbc93bb04 Copter: added CH7 switch to enabling/disable the sonar in flight 
This indirectly switches surface tracking on/off which is useful to
avoid tracking the tops of uneven objects when far above the ground
 2013-01-14 14:00:08 +09:00
Randy Mackay df2137ed72 Copter: constrain loiter so that it never commands more than 45 degrees of lean in lat or lon directions 2013-01-14 13:34:19 +09:00
Randy Mackay fef7569dee Copter: added experimental LOITER_REPOSITIONING #define to config.h 
APM_Config.h should be used to overriding the standard parameters but
they still require a definition in config.h or they will be undefined
when built by the mission planner.
 2013-01-14 13:34:14 +09:00
Randy Mackay 76f032160c Copter: relax altitude check in verify_takeoff 
Previously we checked if the alt > target_alt but because there is
little to no overshoot with the new accel based alt controller this
check was failing for some users.
 2013-01-14 13:34:06 +09:00

Randy Mackay 08dc730d40 ArduCopter: bug fix to LAND flight mode not actually landing if initiated from failsafe 
An hidden bit of failsafe functionality in the set_mode function was
switching the throttle mode back to THROTTLE_AUTO instead of
THROTTLE_LAND
 2013-01-13 20:01:03 +11:00
Randy Mackay 175f69a64f ArduCopter: smooth throttle when switching from manual throttle to alt hold 
new set_accel_throttle_I_from_pilot_throttle function copies the
difference between the pilot's throttle and hover throttle to the
accelerometer based throttle controller's I term.
 2013-01-13 20:00:59 +11:00
Randy Mackay 9ad6f711f8 ArduCopter: replace FS_THR_RTL_MIN_DISTANCE with wp_radius 
This effectively means that an RTL kicked off by a failsafe will
immediately switch to LAND mode only if within 2 meters.  Previously the
radius was much wider (15m).
 2013-01-13 20:00:47 +11:00

this ensures the rate controllers use the latest data
 2013-01-13 20:00:14 +11:00
rmackay9 f25f1cb3bf ArduCopter: changed alt hold to use the sonar if enabled and healthy 2013-01-13 19:56:19 +11:00
rmackay9 21b6c78d12 ArduCopter: added get_throttle_althold_with_slew to allow slower altitude target changes 
Improved surface tracking by using slewed althold controller
Reduced sonar mode filter to just 3 elements to reduce lag but at the possible consequence of allowing sonar noise to creep through for people with margin sonar set-ups.

Pat Hickey d7eeeab79e ArduCopter: fix new style Log.pde build for PX4. 
randy - you should please review these changes to make sure you wanted
to have the int16_t type in all of these structs, or how you want to
convert all these other integer types to int16_t if you do need it that
way.
 2013-01-12 13:11:25 -08:00
Randy Mackay 87627d883b ArduCopter: use new logging method for remaining packet types 
Additional changes include renaming RAW dataflash type to IMU
 2013-01-13 00:17:44 +09:00
Randy Mackay 177da0ca74 ArduCopter: fixed minor bug in logging of parameter changes to dataflash 
It is questionable whether we should even bother writing these to the
dataflash as there is no way to recognise which parameter has been
affectded
 2013-01-13 00:15:34 +09:00
Randy Mackay b4bbae56c6 ArduCopter: reduce redundant event logging 
We now only write state changes to the dataflash log when they have
changed.
Also replaced <tab> with <space> in AP_State.pde
 2013-01-13 00:13:10 +09:00
Andrew Tridgell af478d52bc Copter: use the new logging methods for 2 packet types

James Bielman 7374e5d84e ArduCopter: Use 16-bit arithmetic when comparing event tick counters. 
- On the ARM, once the tick counter wrapped, we stopped running events
  because the wraparound case wasn't being handled correctly.  Make
  sure the comparison is 16 bits to prevent this.
 2013-01-09 11:19:52 -08:00
James Bielman 7827a4a54a ArduCopter: Add AP_HAL_SMACCM support.

message if the main loop could run.
 2013-01-07 11:07:34 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell b079a96eaf Copter: removed GPS_STATUS message 
this message is huge, and completely pointless now that we have
num_satellites in GPS_RAW_INT

- Update ArduCopter and ArduPlane modules to pass the correct serial
  driver to the MS5611 driver.
- Update barometer examples, assuming SPI.
