Robert Lefebvre 8610da7fbc Copter: autopilot modes to check for motor interlock status 2015-05-01 14:30:33 +09:00
Leonard Hall 33a274c928 Copter: take-off uses PosControl's add_takeoff method
Also balances pilot and takeoff climb rates
Also removes takeoff's direct use of poscontrol target

Combined effort of Randy and Leonard

Randy Mackay 6f5b5c24f2 Copter: rename tkoff_ to takeoff_ 2015-05-01 12:56:21 +09:00
Jonathan Challinger 73d961cebc Copter: mavlink initiated takeoff in alt-hold modes
adds PILOT_TKOFF_ALT for target altitude above home in cm for pilot initiated takeoff

Leonard Hall b50f065cab Copter: use relax alt hold controllers 2015-04-16 21:00:28 +09:00
Jonathan Challinger 91a03ae0e7 Copter: add PILOT_THR_FILT and call set_throttle_out functions with that value 2015-04-16 21:00:11 +09:00
Jonathan Challinger b27b9dd86e Copter: use new throttle interface 2015-04-16 20:59:48 +09:00
Jonathan Challinger fddaca4cf7 Copter: rename get_throttle_surface_tracking to get_surface_tracking_climb_rate 2015-04-14 16:10:01 +09:00
Randy Mackay 1819bd48f4 Copter: remove home_is_set checks from Loiter, PosHold, RTL
This allows these flight modes to potentially operate even when the
vehicle has never had a GPS lock.
Potentially we should replace this with a check that the EKF's origin
has been set

Randy Mackay 4185d17915 Copter: fix to RTL, PosHold and Loiter's use of filter status 2015-01-22 14:40:02 +09:00
Randy Mackay fd0b82f669 Copter: add optflow_position_ok and use for loiter
This allows entering Loiter flight mode with only optical flow based
position
2015-01-22 14:39:47 +09:00
Randy Mackay 199dc3454d Copter: replace GPS_ok with position_ok
position_ok uses the EKF's filter status if the EKF is being used
otherwise it falls back to the GPS based checks used by inertial nav

Randy Mackay a4f71e5946 Copter: replace inav's position_ok with get_filter_status 2015-01-22 14:39:42 +09:00
priseborough 963cc4d60a Copter: Add velocity gain scaler to interfaces
Allows nav gain to be scaled to compensate for optical flow noise
2014-12-06 18:16:50 +11:00
priseborough 9844dacf40 Copter: Add EKF ground speed limit to loiter speed control
This is required to prevent the speed controller saturating the optical flow sensor during low altitude flying.

Randy Mackay 1c11a91ec2 Copter: rename land_maybe_complete function 2014-09-19 16:43:17 +09:00
Randy Mackay 6951a20fb0 Copter: soften loiter target when maybe landed
Applies to auto's land, land, loiter, pos hold and rtl flight modes
2014-09-19 16:43:12 +09:00
Randy Mackay 52a3dc2bde Copter: reset target alt to current alt when landed 2014-08-04 16:56:03 +09:00
lthall 9202149fb1 Copter: integrate pre-takeoff throttle feedback
This feature slightly revs the motors in response to the pilot's input
before takeoff AltHold, Loiter, AutoTune, PosHold and Sport flight modes

pair-programmed with Randy Mackay

Randy Mackay 08801eebf2 Copter: integrate AttControl's set_yaw_target_to_current_heading 2014-06-10 20:02:51 +09:00
Randy Mackay 77d5d682c1 Copter: integrate init_targets rename to relax_bf_rate_controller
Also remove unnecessary init_targets from flight mode init functions.

Randy Mackay 7d7a2aced7 Copter: init vert speed and accel for each flight mode
This resolves issue #1021 in which LAND mode could descend at the
PILOT_VELZ rate instead of the WPNAV_SPEED_DN

Pilot defined acceleration is used for AltHold, AutoTune , Circle,
Hybrid, Loiter, OF_Loiter and Sport flight modes
Waypoint Nav (ie. AutoPilot) acceleration is used for Auto, Land, RTL

Randy Mackay 20de5b3006 Copter: Loiter clears out pilot acceleration when failsafe occurs
This ensures invalid pilot desired accelerations are cleared from the
loiter controller.  This is probably not strictly necessary because the
vehicle should switch out of Loiter and into RTL during failsafe.
