Andrew Tridgell 5827c710e2 Plane: fixed sensors and attitude HIL
we now use the Stub version of the InertialSensor driver. In sensors
HIL we can now correctly drive the AHRS code.

Andrew Tridgell 940b057765 Plane: make THR_SLEWRATE docs clearer 2012-11-28 11:41:39 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 2446b986c5 Plane: added THR_PASS_STAB parameter
this allows direct passthru of throttle in STABILIZE and FBWA, which
is useful for nitro planes wher you have a throttle cut switch that
drops the throttle below normal minimum.

rmackay9 9e3ae301b1 ArduPlane: move to use new INS library instead of IMU library 2012-11-07 19:21:03 +09:00
Andrew Tridgell efc2324666 APM: added RSSI_PIN option for receiver RSSI

recompiling
2012-11-06 22:04:41 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 110a2b8af6 APM: fixed loiter radius docs to reflect new limit 2012-10-30 16:19:24 +11:00
rmackay9 e151d3735a ArduPlane: added BATT_VOLT_PIN and BATT_CURR_PIN parameters to allow support for new 3DR IV battery monitor 2012-10-13 20:51:41 +09:00
Andrew Tridgell 8c1766f5df APM: added THR_SUPP_MAN option
this allows for manual throttle control during auto throttle
suppression. This is useful for keeping a petrol engine idling before
takeoff
2012-09-22 20:17:06 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 7d84666b9d APM: removed the unused sonar code
when we start supporting a sonar we'll add a AP_Sonar library, like
AP_Airspeed
2012-09-19 19:35:22 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 1cdb3a8dba APM: added ALT_OFFSET parameter
useful to adjust for barometric pressure changes during a long flight
2012-09-19 16:23:25 +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
2012-09-09 19:39:04 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell b2a74951d1 APM: added RUDDER_STEER option
when enabled, this uses only the rudder to steer during takeoff and
landing, using aileron only for levelling
2012-09-08 10:07:03 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 12c5e00db9 APM: added XTRK_MIN_DIST option
this allows you to disable crosstrack correction on short legs
2012-09-08 10:06:44 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell ae74db15e1 APM: fixed docs for LIM_PITCH_MIN 2012-08-30 14:55:08 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 332ad921cc APM: added new TELEM_DELAY parameter
number of seconds to delay telemetry
2012-08-30 08:59:39 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 3f54b83238 APM: added ALT_CTRL_ALG parameter
this allows you to select different altitude control algorithms. The
current choices are for the default (automatic based on if airspeed is
available), or to force a non-airspeed algorithm

The idea is to make it possible to use airspeed for some things (like
wind speed, speed scaling) but not for alt control
2012-08-28 20:18:24 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 9cf8cc590f APM: added XTRK_USE_WIND parameter
when enabled this will use the wind estimation code to adjust the
navigation bearing, allowing the navigation code to cope with much
higher levels of wind while using a compass
2012-08-25 17:49:26 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 703ca469fe APM: added optional use of new APM_Control library
thanks to Jon Challinger for the new controllers!

2012-08-17 15:04:53 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell efee2b1557 APM: added LAND_FLARE_ALT and LAND_FLARE_SEC

flare the plane and lock the heading. Useful on larger planes.

landing
2012-08-15 12:39:35 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 1b152ef9e0 APM: implement FENCE_ACTION_REPORT
when FENCE_ACTION is set to FENCE_ACTION_REPORT a fence breach is
reported, but the flight mode is not changed
2012-08-15 12:39:35 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 93f45f232f APM: added 'OBC' failsafe module for ArduPlane

 - heartbeat pin
 - waypoint for heartbeat failure
 - waypoint for GPS failure

Andrew Tridgell 35c88dd418 INS: disable INS AP_Param table when not on APM1 hardware
this could cause overwriting of memory with default values
2012-08-11 22:06:03 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 4c77cbcd0b APM: Added RST_MISSION_CH option

switch. Very useful for repeating a mission during testing
2012-08-09 10:33:16 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 6e46db39a1 APM: Added STICK_MIXING option
