Andrew Tridgell ac69a531d3 HAL_PX4: workaround problem with APM file on SD card
this works around file redirection bug from earlier firmwares

Randy Mackay d1344e8c39 Copter: remove #define for CROSSTRACK_GAIN
Note: the cross track is still calculated inside the inertial nav based
loiter and wp controls but it's no longer requires a tunable parameter
2013-03-17 16:56:18 +09:00
Randy Mackay 1b6fcad90a Copter: remove tilt compensation parameter
Note: this idea of feed forward tilt compensation is being incorporated
into the inertial nav based loiter and wp controllers but does not
require a separate tunable parameter

Randy Mackay 61e29173e3 Copter: remove unused crosstrack variables and parameters
Cross track is still calculated internally to the wpnav controller so we
should move this to a library and still report it to the ground station

Randy Mackay a1295c042b Copter: fix init of wp_verify_byte so wp alt is always required 2013-03-17 16:37:30 +09:00
Andrew Tridgell 551950c573 GPS_UBLOX: fixed auto-config of baudrate
this fixes the setting of the baudrate on a uBlox that is configured
for 9600. It fixes the NMEA message to have a \r\n, plus sends the
NAV_SOL rate config before the NMEA baudrate config message.

This fixes issue #159

Randy Mackay fdcb78ccf7 Copter: leonard's smoother alt-hold transition
Target altitude when entering alt-hold is based on a projection from
current alt and climb rate

Randy Mackay 37040adfaa Copter: bug fix for auto missions over 320m
get_throttle_althold_with_slew's target_alt parameter defined as int16_t
(instead of int32_t) meaning missions with altitudes >320m could wrap
around and become negative.

Randy Mackay 150046f2b8 Copter: GPS Failsafe implemented
Switches to LAND mode 5 seconds after losing GPS if you're in a flight
mode that requires a GPS

Randy Mackay f9539384a1 Copter: rename failsafe to failsafe_radio
Makes way for separation of failsafes for throttle, gps and gcs
2013-03-16 17:14:21 +09:00
Randy Mackay f263e81ed7 Copter: remove unused GPS and baro filters
Saves 24bytes of RAM
Removing the baro filter leads to noisier Baro Alt appearing in the log
so we should make the inertial nav altitude appear in the CTUN message

Andrew Tridgell 0dde0b3551 Rover: initial implementation of skid steering for APMrover2
this adds SKID_STEER_IN and SKID_STEER_OUT parameters for controlling
skid skeering control and output

Andrew Tridgell 8d8e30156f autotest: added skid steering version of rover sim start script 2013-03-15 09:52:57 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 6ea2130342 autotest: added skid steering support to rover simulator
Very rough initial implementation. Needs to be tweaked for more
realistic behaviour later.

thanks to Greg Brill for pointers on this.

Kevin Hester 9885cc7ed1 Docs: Add XML emit to param_parse.py. See below for more details...
I've refactored the param_parse tool to use various 'emitters'.  An emitter
can take parameter info and output it in a particular format.  Currently the
only supported emitters are the wiki and XML formats.

The goal of these changes is to create a standard machine readable description
of parameters - mainly for use by ground control stations, but it will also
enable spiffy scripting environments where code can refer symbolically to
vehicle parameters (reflectionish).

Open issue: Is there any sort of Ardupilot build id which can be included in
the generated XML?  That would ensure that we select the correct paramdefs
for the load on the target (possibly by asking the target for a SHA or
somesuch).  If that issue is resolved, then the filename for the XML
file should probably be something like:
arduplane-ca5742ac.pdef.xml.

It is worth noting that I've proposed a suffix of ".pdef.xml" for these file
types.  This facilitates automated file handling on Android devices.  On
Android you can register 'handlers' for particular file extensions and if
the user tries to open that extension in email or a web browser your app
will be given a chance to do something about it.  The 'outer' xml extension
will allow naive editors to know that at least this is an xml file.

I will include a sample of the XML format with the pull-request for this CL.
