 2018-07-19 09:48:25 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell d8a7618e15 Plane: update use of AC_Loiter controller for quadplane 
this changes the way the loiter controller is initialised for QLOITER,
after discussions with Leonard.

The way we were doing it could cause a sudden acceleration demand when
switching into QLOITER.

This also changes the default loiter parameters to reduce the maximum
acceleration that will be applied in QLOITER. Many thanks to Leonard for
the advice
 2018-06-11 08:40:58 +09:00
Andrew Tridgell d07f8aa42b Plane: fixed a bug in transition to QSTABILIZE for tailsitters

Michael du Breuil aec7521da4 Plane: Fix truncation of a time interval 
Truncating the a millisecond time delta to uint16_t causes it to wrap
every 65 seconds, which could momentarily reset the desired climb rate
 2018-01-25 14:30:49 +11:00

Andrew Tridgell 20b05e4228 Plane: added conversion code for PID layout change 
this copes with the move of multicopter PIDs inside the position
controller
 2018-01-24 18:23:59 +11:00
Randy Mackay 7b1157e2d8 Plane: remove setting accel_z PID controller's dt

Andrew Tridgell f7a735b990 Plane: fixed transitions for tailsitters after auto-takeoff 
need to use angle wait
 2017-11-19 16:06:02 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 957c1f6d23 Plane: extend QLOITER transition pitch limit 
use twice transition time for pitch envelope to reduce QLOITER
transition harshness
 2017-11-05 21:35:32 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 9c8cd6c1cc Plane: added Q_TRANS_DECEL 
this gives a deceleration rate for QRTL transition from RTL, and also
for transitions to QLOITER
 2017-11-05 20:44:42 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell e27c54a312 Plane: smooth out fwd tailsitter transition 
use Q_TRANSITION_MS and the transition angle to pitch forward more
slowly

Andrew Tridgell 552faa8f67 Plane: smoother tailsitter transitions 
this smooths out tailsitter transitions in both directions, adding a
new FW to VTOL transition state
 2017-10-30 16:30:38 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell af893ddde7 Plane: implement Q_OPTIONS 
this allows for NAV_TAKEOFF to be treated as NAV_VTOL_TAKEOFF in
quadplanes, and for level flight to be maintained during quadplane
transitions
 2017-10-30 16:30:10 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 02f8d888c3 Plane: relax controllers when disarmed 
this prevents any remaining integrator from a previous flight stage from
affecting flight across a disarm
 2017-10-30 16:30:10 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 92ee05b925 Plane: fixed motor channel handling 2017-10-25 11:39:11 +11:00

Andrew Tridgell 8178ab4037 Plane: make mav_type in HEARTBEAT configurable 
needed for qgc to setup for quadplanes
 2017-10-20 15:41:06 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 0aed5a9a57 Plane: prevent controller windup on ground 
when on the ground in an auto-throttle mode lik FBWB or CRUISE, we may
have the throttle suppressed. In that case we should not run the
multicopter controller on quadplanes, or it may build up control which
will then apply on takeoff. This is particularly severe for aircraft
that are not level on the ground, such as taildragger quadplanes

Andrew Tridgell 35c1a732a6 Plane: allow takeoff in guided then fw loiter 
this allows for quadplane takeoff in GUIDED with Q_GUIDED_MODE=0. The
takeoff will be VTOL, but subsequent guided points will be fixed wing
 2017-09-18 10:21:53 +10:00
Tom Pittenger 85b7f1bbb4 Plane: guided takeoff success should return true 2017-09-13 14:46:22 -07:00

Andrew Tridgell bc17c26dbf Plane: limit pitch in transition to QLOITER and QLAND 
when switching to QLOITER or QLAND when in forward flight, limit the
maximum pitch to prevent a sudden decelleration
 2017-09-09 08:14:09 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell b6809655d4 Plane: smooth the transition to LAND_FINAL in quadplanes 
this makes for a much smoother change to LAND_FINAL, without a jerk as
it changes vertical speed
 2017-09-09 08:14:09 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 8411ac5c57 Plane: fixed a problem with descent rate in landings for quadplanes 
use xy controller instead of xyz controller, which prevents calling z
controller twice, which led to poor height control
 2017-09-09 08:14:09 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell baee71a5b4 Plane: added GUIDED takeoff for quadplanes 
this allows takeoff in GUIDED mode in the same way as copters
 2017-09-09 08:14:09 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell a88e663191 Plane: adjust target altitude slowly in QRTL mode

thanks to Marco for finding this issue
 2017-09-07 07:22:13 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 909f109b3f Plane: don't start a transition while disarmed 
this can caused flooding of the GCS console while disarmed in FBWA
mode

Dr.-Ing. Amilcar Do Carmo Lucas 2f5f8eb323 Plane: Use SI units conventions in parameter units 
Follow the rules from:
http://physics.nist.gov/cuu/Units/units.html
http://physics.nist.gov/cuu/Units/outside.html
and
http://physics.nist.gov/cuu/Units/checklist.html
one further constrain is that only printable (7bit) ASCII characters are allowed
 2017-05-17 18:07:25 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 6eaad59115 Plane: improve vectored tailsitter takeoff 
this gives extra pitch input when taking off a vectored tailsitter,
allowing the motors to point straight up for easy takeoff

thanks to Leonard for the idea!
 2017-05-07 09:10:44 +10:00

Andrew Tridgell b1f1ace736 Plane: support vectored yaw tiltrotors 
this adds support for tiltrotors which control yaw by vectoring the
forward motors. This avoids the need for the rear motor on a
tilt-tricopter to have a tilt servo
 2017-04-24 16:54:41 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 2d9c3e3d93 Plane: added EKF yaw reset handling to quadplane

Andrew Tridgell 642a6acfcb Plane: support thrust vectoring in tailsitters 
adds Q_TAILSIT_VHGAIN and Q_TAILSIT_VFGAIN, allowing for thust
vectoring in both fixed wing and hover
 2017-04-11 17:34:40 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 664e41cec6 Plane: bring in demanded climb rate over 1 second 
when we engage the Z controller in quadplane we bring in the climb
rate slowly to prevent a sudden change in motor demand
 2017-04-09 16:45:19 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 0cf571d338 Plane: moved Z altitude target reset 
reset alt target whenever we have not run Z controller for 2s
 2017-04-09 16:45:19 +10:00
Mark Whitehorn 7679b758b0 Plane: add parameter RUDD_DT_GAIN for dual motor tailsitter 
controls rudder to differential thrust mixing in FW mode
 2017-04-06 08:29:44 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell acaef22416 Plane: improve transition from QSTABILIZE to FBWA or QHOVER 2017-04-05 20:00:29 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 36d8f730e1 Plane: setup better defaults for tailsitters 2017-04-04 10:15:08 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 5d06e4238f Plane: make the quadplane motors var_info dynamic 
this will allow for more quadplane motors class types
 2017-03-25 16:22:10 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell af97a3974b Plane: initialise target height correctly on quadplane transition 
this fixes a bug where a plane in QSTABILIZE would drop suddenly if
switched to FBWA when the target altitude had not been initialised
 2017-03-22 21:34:40 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell bb158a437e Plane: handle bad Q_FRAME_CLASS 
default to quad with a warning. This prevents users getting stuck
without being able to set Q_ENABLE=1

thanks to Leonard for noticing
 2017-03-18 22:10:20 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 3f7e7d456f Plane: in fixed wing mode slave quadplane attitude rate controller 
For quadplanes this uses the attitude controller from fixed wing
when using the multicopter controller to assist fixed wing
flight. This prevents a rate mismatch between the two controller
leading to oscillation
 2017-03-14 14:42:20 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 2db8589f49 Plane: smarter Z controller initialisation for quadplanes 
this is more generic than the previous one used only for the full
position controller
 2017-03-14 14:42:20 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 4ff5bf5af5 Plane: zero integrators and set throttle mix 
this zeros fixed wing integrators during TRANSITION_AIRSPEED_WAIT and
uses a zero throttle mix during TRANSITION_TIMER. This should allow
the fixed wing controller more time to adapt to forward flight
 2017-02-26 09:20:51 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell c061d5615b Plane: added manual input mask for tailsitter prop-hang 
This adds new parameters Q_TAILSIT_MASK and Q_TAILSIT_MASKCH. These
parameters allow a user to use the tailsitter capabilities of a 3D
plane to teach themselves to prop-hang.

It works by allowing the user to setup a switch on their transmitter
to enable manual pass-thru of a set of the input channels to outputs
when in tailsitter hover. The user can then use that switch to allow
learning of hover control in a 3D plane one channel (or two channels)
at a time.
 2017-02-26 09:20:13 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 3bb25eb194 Plane: added Q_TAILSIT_INPUT 
this allows the user to control tailsitters either in body frame (like
a plane) or in earth frame (like a multicopter). This is useful for
people wanting to learn to fly prop-hang on 3D planes
 2017-02-26 09:20:13 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell ea5186340b Plane: added Q_TILT_RATE_UP and Q_TILT_RATE_DN as separate parameters 
allow control of tilt rate separately for UP and DOWN

always allow at least 90 degrees/second for switching to MANUAL
 2017-02-25 17:53:26 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell e8b11924f8 Plane: split out the tailsitter transition complete code 
use both roll and pitch to trigger completion of transition. This
copes with situations where the plane has managed to get itself rolled
over far enough that it can't recover into hover
 2017-02-18 17:26:43 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell d5a3f844f1 Plane: changes for AC_WPNav 2017-02-18 17:26:43 +11:00

Andrew Tridgell 0fc04b0158 Plane: setup plane frame type parameter flags 2017-02-14 19:50:01 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell c294519925 Plane: lower default Q_M_SPOOL_TIME to 0.25 2017-02-14 09:23:17 +09:00
priseborough 013eb254a2 Plane: use standard unit descriptor for milliseconds 2017-01-27 16:57:42 +09:00
Andrew Tridgell 07cedd8a66 Plane: prevent stability shutdown in transition 
this prevents the vertical motors from shutting down while
transitioning if the desired throttle was too low at the start of the
transition
 2017-01-25 19:01:15 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 0d4405106f Plane: removed forcing of trim for motors in quadplane 
this caused problems with tricopter tail servos
 2017-01-25 19:01:15 +11:00
