this was broken in 2.61
2012-09-13 12:01:40 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 4f504b0729 APM: show real raw RC input, not mixed input

Andrew Tridgell 4a942bc45d APM: report throttle and ground speed mission changes 2012-09-12 13:09:32 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 972b8df052 APM: allow for landing pitch control until final stage 2012-09-12 13:09:16 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 7a49515ee3 APM: fixed roll in landing approach 2012-09-12 11:53:17 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 77926a6965 APM: switch to Randys new IMU rate control method
this drives the speed of the 50Hz loop by the number of samples
accumulated in the IMU. This should give much more consistent timing
in DCM.

Thanks to Randy for introducing this scheme in ArduCopter!

Jason Short b56dc44e61 ACM : Fix enduf 2012-09-10 21:25:53 -07:00
Jason Short 24f80c632c ACM : forced setup_show to dump params during log dump for better analysis. 2012-09-10 20:52:30 -07:00
Andrew Tridgell 0a9070e4fe APM: removed the GPS_enabled flag
this fixes using GPS_PROTOCOL to specify a specific GPS with a GPS
that takes a few updates before it works (eg. needing baud rate
changes).

This makes it easier to use an APM1-1280 with more features enabled

Andrew Tridgell 72e9c31c17 APM: added speed scaling to wheeled steering

without causing osciallation after takeoff
2012-09-11 13:37:34 +10:00

rmackay9 b1b3b806ad AP_PeriodicProcess: queue_process changes to suspend other processes before running queued process
Also restored suspend_timer to void return type
2012-09-10 11:37:58 +09:00
rmackay9 7a0189fb2c ArduCopter: modified mainloop timing to be in sync with the arrival of new data from the IMU.
This reduces the maximum delay between when new sensor data arrives and when it is actually used by about 5ms.
2012-09-10 11:37:53 +09:00
rmackay9 4e85e545bf ArduCopter: added NUM_IMU_SAMPLES_FOR_XYZHZ definitions for MPU6000 and Oilpan to allow more syncing of the mainloop with the arrival of data from the IMU. 2012-09-10 11:37:48 +09:00
rmackay9 5a3645d36a AP_ADC: added num_samples_available to allow main loop to be synced with arrival of new sensor data for Oilpan. 2012-09-10 11:37:43 +09:00
rmackay9 38feee9c61 AP_IMU: added num_samples_available to allow main loop timing to be synced with arrival of new data from IMU. 2012-09-10 11:37:38 +09:00
rmackay9 3901387c8d AP_InertialSensor: changed read of sensor from MPU6000 to happen immediately
This reduces the delay between when data arrives and when it is used
by up to 1ms.

Added num_samples_available method to all InertialSensors to allow
main loop timing to be synced with sensors.

Andrew Tridgell 29344e688d APM: reboot only works on the APM2 2012-09-10 11:50:48 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell d08bd4214b APM: added support for MAV_CMD_PREFLIGHT_REBOOT_SHUTDOWN
this allows for remote reboot of APM
2012-09-10 11:42:30 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 57ac3f59f2 APM: fixed fetch of relative altitude waypoints
when we fetch relative altitude waypoints from APM to a file, we need
to preserve the altitude
2012-09-10 09:40:29 +10:00
Craig Elder b667c6eb8c APM_RC: fixed noisy PWM output on startup for APM2
This reduces the number of rubbish pulses on the APM2 PWM output pins
on startup, which should help with booting some cheaper ESCs.

Thanks to Randy for the idea!

rmackay9 8f993cde2b ArduCopter: bug fix for ROI not working if user did not have a camera mount
Changed verify_nav_roi command to attempt to point at the target if our camera mount type is not pan_tilt nor pan_tilt_roll

Andrew Tridgell b374f604d6 APM: simplify radio_trim code
this removes the duplicate code. Throttle trim is not changed.
2012-09-09 19:39:09 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell a90182b9d8 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

Andrew Tridgell 540f7894dc AP_Mount: updated for new RC_Channel_aux API 2012-09-08 15:12:52 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 89dc79fded RC_Channel: simplified RC_Channel_aux and fixed issue 725
it is perfectly valid to configure two RC channels with the same
function, especially when that function is manual output (ie. copy
input to output)

This removes the g_rc_function[] indirection array
2012-09-08 15:12:28 +10:00
