Randy Mackay a76e2ab02e Plane: reserve NavEKF slot in param list even when not used
Although this wasn't a problem immediatley, if someone had added a
parameter after k_param_NavEKF it's position in eeprom could have moved
as AP_AHRS_NAVEKF_AVAILABLE was enabled/disabled
2014-02-21 13:53:05 +09:00

this generalises the gcs object usage
2013-11-23 19:29:22 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 490a061c6f Plane: added HIL_ERR_LIMIT
this allows DCM to recover if HIL attitude drifts too far from true attitude
2013-11-23 18:50:57 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 5bf1463e7a Plane: added RALLY_LIMIT_KM

airfield
2013-10-06 14:51:13 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell d275f50539 Plane: added GROUND_STEER_ALT and GROUND_STEER_DPS
this uses the new AP_SteerController steering controller developed for
the rover code to allow for ground steering of planes
2013-10-05 07:46:27 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 081510d37a Plane: added ACRO_LOCKING parameter
this enables/disables the attitude locking in acro mode, allowing acro
to be a pure rate controller
2013-10-05 07:45:12 +10:00
Michael Day 497c95de8e Plane: Add support for rally points.
Added parameter RALLY_TOTAL.

Added handlers for new MAVLink messages RALLY_POINT and
RALLY_FETCH_POINT.

defines.h modified to make room in EEPROM to store rally points.

rally.pde added and is responsible for ensuring rally points get
stored in the correct spot in EEPROM.

Multiple Rally/RTL point support now done.  If rally points have
been defined, then when RTL mode is entered, the closest Rally
point is chosend and the plane loiters at that point.

Note only 10 rally points can be defined; this is to save space in
the APM's EEPROM.

Randy Mackay c64d444b5a Plane: integrate BattMonitor 2013-10-03 11:16:08 +09:00
Andrew Tridgell dd6a69f588 Plane: added WP_MAX_RADIUS parameter
useful when using AUTO_FBW_STEER for manual steering in competitions
2013-09-13 17:43:08 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell cc6acac1dd Plane: added AUTO_FBW_STEER option
this is an unusual option that gives FBWA flight control in AUTO
mode. It is being added to support use of APM in an aerial robotics
competition where students need to pilot the plane, but they still
need waypoint triggering of payloads
2013-09-13 14:38:09 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell accfd46633 Plane: update for new APM_Control API 2013-08-14 14:57:41 +10:00

properly document
2013-07-22 13:28:11 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 74dabad1f3 Plane: added SKIP_GYRO_CAL parameter

Andrew Tridgell 93cd0f9a31 Plane: switch to new AP_Scheduler
this gives us more accurate task scheduling in ArduPlane, plus better
monitoring of task timing (via SCHED_DEBUG)
2013-06-04 13:34:58 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 27bc0cdc2c Plane: rename old channel_* globals
prevent the old "g." names from being used
2013-06-03 16:37:51 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell fb9bf21522 Plane: allow channel mapping of first 4 channels
this makes it easier to support DSM and SBUS radios
2013-06-03 16:23:48 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell cd55ed45e2 Plane: removed the old roll/pitch/yaw PID controllers
use the new controllers, with auto parameter conversion
2013-05-31 14:06:56 +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
Andrew Tridgell dd633fcf3f Plane: make voltage and battery capacity failsafe settable at runtime
this also fixes issue #292
2013-05-22 20:33:57 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 4e2b88f6e6 Plane: added ATT_CONTROLLER option to select attitude controller
set to 1 for the new APM_Control library
2013-05-05 21:51:09 +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 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 406921faf1 Plane: added VTAIL_OUTPUT option
this allows for software vtail mixing
2013-04-05 15:22:11 +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

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

rmackay9 d9b4407e64 AP_InertialSensor: changes after review with Tridge.
sanity checking added to accelerometer calibration routine.
user feedback is sent using gcs_send_text_fmt instead of Serial.printf.
moved ins parameters to new eeprom number to avoid conflicts with older parameters.
other small changes including renaming of functions and parameters.
2012-11-07 19:21:15 +09:00
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 07c291bb73 APM: fixed a comment typo 2012-10-16 17:21:04 +11:00

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

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

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.

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

Andrew Tridgell 99b11e4f19 Mount: enable mount control via eeprom parameters
this enables MNT_* parameter control of the camera mount code. It also
fixes the conversion of calculated angles between degrees and
integers, and fixes stabilised mount control when yaw control is not
available.

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 d07b77237e AHRS: enable AHRS_ group in ArduPlane 2012-04-16 20:55:13 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 4c4c38f69a APM: Added MANUAL_LEVEL option
when MANUAL_LEVEL is set to 1, we don't do accelerometer levelling at
startup, and instead used the values saved in the EEPROM. This makes
it easier to do levelling on the bench, or once for a series of
flights for the day
2012-03-29 12:39:53 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 718a5b70e3 AP_Param: fixed saving of sensor calibration

Doug Weibel 69c7598db2 Update battery monitoring code for ArduPlane
Fixes compatibility for APM2.  Also a significant update to the battery monitoring code:  We previously had monitoring modes for individual cell voltages for 3 and 4 cell lipos.  These have been removed as they were never really supported (the cell voltages were computed but were not reported or recorded anywhere).  Also, some clean-up/prep work was done for supporting monitoring 2 separate battery packs.  The CLI battery and current monitoring tests were consolidated into 1 test.

Andrew Tridgell e99db6526f APM: added RST_SWITCH_CH parameter
This is useful for switching back to the mode indicated by the control
switch after a failsafe or fence breach. I was just changing modes
each time, but it is far more elegant to have a spring loaded switch
for "I am ready to take control again", rather than continually
changing modes.

Doug Weibel ca89857854 Changes to logging file system to avoid problems with 0 and 1 page logs 2011-12-13 20:09:07 -07:00
Doug Weibel 2ef4c79a7c Minimum ground speed patch from Claudio Natoli. Thanks Claudio!
This patch will boost the target airspeed as necessary to keep the ground speed above a parameter value - param_min_groundspeed.  Airspeed is still limited to FBW-max.  Setting min_groundspeed to zero (default) disables the feature.
2011-12-09 16:43:25 -07:00
Doug Weibel f752c4b799 Change to logging file system.
