Randy Mackay 745df9b13c Copter: add SONAR_GAIN to tune reaction to sonar
Some users report the response to sonar is too violent, this allows that
reaction to be reduced

Randy Mackay a53e5f747b Copter: add fourth yaw behaviour, look-at-home
Added get_wp_yaw_mode to remove duplication of checks of the
WP_YAW_BEHAVIOR parameter
2013-04-20 15:36:24 +09:00
Randy Mackay 37abfdc65a Copter: make CIRCLE_RATE a tunable parameter
Also bug fix to check of how many time it has rotated during a loiter
turns mission command
2013-04-20 12:03:55 +09:00
Randy Mackay 0fc9c8739e Copter: add WP_YAW_BEHAVE parameter
Allows user to control whether nose points towards next waypoint and/or
home when RTLing.
Replaces YAW_OVR_BEHAVE which had a very similar purpose.  Almost nobody
ever knew about or used this parameter.

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
2013-03-17 16:53:32 +09:00
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

Switch to LAND flight mode if throttle failsafe triggers and we do not have a GPS.
THR_FAILSAFE renamed to FS_THR_ENABLE.
THR_FS_VALUE renamed to FS_THR_VALUE.
THR_FS_ACTION removed (action is now controlled by setting FS_THR parameter).

rmackay9 2f1b2b70e6 ArduCopter: added ACRO_TRAINER parameter to allow enabling/disabling the acro training function which will bring the roll back to within +- 45 degrees 2012-12-10 22:27:46 +09:00
rmackay9 dadad8677e ArduCopter: added descriptions for most parameters that did not have them
Renamed loiter_radius to circle_radius to better reflect it's purpose.
Removed some unused parameters including WP_MODE, WP_MUST_INDEX, LOG_LASTFILE, AXIS_P
2012-12-10 21:45:57 +09:00
rmackay9 56ceb230cb ArduCopter: add YAW_OVR_BEHAVE to allow control of when autopilot takes back control of yaw after pilot overrides it during a mission 2012-12-09 18:04:31 +09:00
rmackay9 9dd978576b ArduCopter: auto yaw changes to allow pilot override of yaw during missions
Added set_yaw_mode to better control of yaw controller changes and variable initialisation.
Replaced AUTO_YAW mode with separate yaw controllers YAW_LOOK_AT_NEXT_WP, YAW_LOOK_AT_LOCATION, YAW_LOOK_AT_HEADING.
Pilot manual override of yaw causes yaw to change to YAW_HOLD (i.e. manual yaw) until next waypoint is reached.
Added get_yaw_slew function to control how quickly autopilot turns copter
Changed YAW_LOOK_AHEAD to use GPS heading and moved to new get_look_ahead_yaw function in Attitude.pde
Renamed variables: target_bearing->wp_bearing, original_target_bearing->original_wp_bearing.
Removed auto_yaw_tracking and auto_yaw variables and update_auto_yaw function as they are no longer needed.
Simplified MAV_CMD_CONDITION_YAW handling (do_yaw).  We lose ability to control direction of turn and ability to do long panorama shots but it now works between waypoints and save 20bytes.

rmackay9 4ca27defb3 ArduCopter: update comments related to CH7 switch options 2012-12-06 17:40:36 +09:00
rmackay9 39d524212f ArduCopter: allow accel based throttle controller to be enabled/disabled with the new THR_ACC_ENABLE parameter.
When disabled the original velocity based throttle controller is used.
2012-12-06 10:31:57 +09:00
rmackay9 a5bb54e36e ArduCopter: RTL clean-up and slightly improved landing sensor
Consolidated RTL state to be captured by rtl_state variable.
Combined update_RTL_Nav and verify_RTL functions which performed the same function but one was for missions, the other for the RTL flight mode.
Renamed some RTL parameters and global variables to have RTL at the front.
Landing detector now checks accel-throttle's I term and/or a very low throttle value
