airfield
 2013-10-06 14:51:13 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 365e82aecb Plane: use a rally point when out of mission items 2013-10-05 23:07:32 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 61dd04ccb5 Plane: auto-update home and baro calibration when disarmed

baro calibration is updated
 2013-10-05 18:45:45 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 536fbb4a30 Plane: if pilot gives aileron input then disable ground steering 
otherwise it would be very tricky to do a low pass!
 2013-10-05 07:46:27 +10:00

useful for servo testing
 2013-10-05 07:46:27 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell d275f50539 Plane: added GROUND_STEER_ALT and GROUND_STEER_DPS

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
Randy Mackay 6e2b1093fc Plane: mavlink ext status to use SYS_STATUS_SENSOR enum 2013-10-04 13:21:01 +09:00
Andrew Tridgell 011915eb1c Plane: added error checking to rally load save 
sanity check the rally points
 2013-10-03 12:21:08 +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.

Kevin Hester 996eda0080 Plane: Report MAV_STATE_ACTIVE if flying, MAV_STATE_STANDBY otherwise 
(There are also various error states MAV_STATE_CRITICAL that are unchanged
by this check in).

The is_flying() check is similar to the code in suppress_throttle, but
I wanted to make it very optimistic on thinking we are flying - which is
not what you want for set_throttle...

(AC has similar MAV_STATE_ACTIVE vs MAV_STATE_STANDBY behavior now)
 2013-09-21 21:57:07 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell bcce2e4fc5 Plane: use new Baro API 2013-09-21 21:31:03 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 36466e91ed Plane: run SENSOR_OFFSETS message at 1/10 of the requested rate 
this message wastes bandwidth, as the values change very slowly
 2013-09-21 09:35:45 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell c4dcdcf5a2 Plane: only send RC_CHANNELS_SCALED in HIL 
saves a bit of telemetry bandwidth

 2013-09-19 21:42:21 +10:00
Paul Riseborough 43cf0736a3 Plane: Auto Takeoff Check updates 
Adds additional launch angle protection and protection against early

Andrew Tridgell ec0c894306 Plane: use the projected position for geofencing and waypoints 2013-09-17 21:05:25 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 43ffe91546 Plane: added FS_ACTION of 2 for glide 
this allows people without specified settings in their receiver for
failsafe to choose FBWA zero throttle glide on throttle failsafe. That
can be a better choice when flying at a R/C club field
 2013-09-15 15:05:39 +10:00
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 de7b42e323 Plane: changed to AP_Vehicle.h 2013-09-13 11:46:54 +10:00

Andrew Tridgell 0c8d56632e Plane: fixed SR0 and SR3 autodocs 2013-09-12 09:53:24 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell f6688582a6 Plane: added FENCE_ACTION=3 behaviour 
this makes it safer to enable the geofence as a receiver failsafe
mode. It retains manual throttle control, so if it triggers on the
ground due to the receiver losing signal from the transmitter then the
throttle can be kept low, preventing an unexpected takeoff.
