Jason Short 9a30270879 System.pde - RTL
removed Approach mode, fixed RTL to loiter until desired altitude is reached

Andrew Tridgell 82ede937e7 AnalogSource: convert analogRead() calls to the new API
this should give us much better analog values, plus save a bunch of
CPU time

Jason Short 8b212d8baa Adjustments to the Inertial_nav
lowered Rate_I and Rate_P to be less jumpy. raised throttle_p

Andrew Tridgell a684bddbda GPS: open the GPS serial port with a 256 byte buffer
the UBLOX needs more than 128 bytes for reliable parsing

Jason Short 71f80f3a77 Bug fix: When adjusting altitude, RTL then land will fail unless this var is reset to false. 2012-06-03 22:25:27 -07:00
Jason Short 0ce883b96a Removed unused variable 2012-05-29 12:43:23 -07:00
Jason Short 5754f97433 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
Robert Lefebvre c8fb9a6635 More CopterLEDS changes.
Merged CopterLEDS and Piezo functions to eliminate pin conflict on APM2.  Created new Parameter bit to turn piezo function on and off from MP. Moved GPS and Aux pin assignments to allow commonality between APM1 and 2.  Set LED_Mode parameter default to 9 in order to make CopterLEDS completely backwards compatible with old Motor LEDS and Piezo code.  Legacy users should see no difference.

rmackay9 1d086c83f0 ArduCopter - system.pde - changed references to "motor_armed" to "motors.armed()" as part of the move to use AP_Motors library. 2012-04-04 23:03:21 +09:00
Andrew Tridgell b4107d35e8 MAVLink: raise the serial transmit buffer size to 256 bytes
the 128 byte serial transmit buffer was causing significant problems
with queueing of mavlink messages. With 256 bytes we can fit a lot
more messages out in each pass of the code, which makes telemetry more
efficient

As we discussed on the dev call, we now have enough free ram for this
to be worthwhile

Andrew Tridgell 64cc04ae09 ACM: adjust yaw drift correction constants
this should give the compass a bit more authority
2012-03-10 10:34:28 +11:00
Jason Short 730476fdfd ACM -
Implemented automatic ranging of Alt Hold gains. Works well in simulator and testing.
- alt hold estimation moved to 50 hz
- simple fixed observer calc for smooth and accurate climb rates useful for derivative calcs
- auto-reset of the I term by moving I value into throttle value. This recalcs the gain every 20seconds for battery drainage compensation in long flights.
- remove filtering for Nav_throttle
- added a way to lower the gain on nav_throttle for descents by / climb_rate error by 2 - seems to work OK and keeps copter from dropping like a rock when the Baro drifts quickly lower.
- removed old throttle hold set point code
- made throttle override for alt hold +- 200 vs 250

Andrew Tridgell 1a861b3de5 allow for lower serial baud rates
not many people will use less than 9600 baud, except for those wanting
to test extreme range radios, which is what I'm trying to do :-)
