rmackay9 fd110a2723 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.

Andrew Tridgell f97104b435 ACM: use compass.accumulate() in ArduCopter
this gives us a much less noisy magnetometer

rmackay9 5073e56c06 ArduCopter: upgraded firmware version to 2.7.3 2012-09-02 12:58:16 +09:00
rmackay9 c9d34c1737 ArduCopter: fixes to allow AP_Mount to work on APM1 with original default channels and fix to reenable support for 3-axis gimbals on APM2.
Channels 5 to 11 changed to RC_Channel_aux.
Removed channel 9 because APM_RC doesn't support it in any case.
Updated EEPROM format version to 119 because of the change to RC_Channel_aux and because k_param_rc_11 moved to be after k_param_rc_10.

Jason Short 770956a3fd ACM : Made control_roll and pitch global for logging; made yaw towards waypoint use initial angle and not a recalculated angle to deal with wiggles as we approach WP 2012-08-16 15:39:50 -07:00
rmackay9 36f947acb9 ArduCopter: changed all "int" to "int16_t" and a few "long"s to "int32_t".
Also moved "simple_counter" variable from global scope to the "update_simple_mode" function which is the only place that it's actually used.
2012-08-16 20:04:46 +09:00
Jason Short a4bc5950cf ACM: Added a filtered version of Location for GPS lag.
I did this because when you are close to a WP the Yaw angle can go a bit wacky as the location jumps around. The filtered loc is only used in the wp_distance calculation now.

Amilcar Lucas 107155fa1a AP_Mount: Allow using any RC channel to control any of the mount axes.
This has the added benefit of saving 60 bytes and simplifying Mission Planner gui.
Moved some code from RC_Channel_aux to AP_Mount class
The servos get written by the update_mount_position() function, this simplifies main()
PS: The beauty of using libraries: I did not have to touch a single line of ArduPlane's code!

Jason Short cb1cdcd4a7 Arducopter: New Alt control code
Uses a new method to manage altitude changes. Alt hold controller was split into a hold and a rate controller just like navigation. Changing alt is done by specifying a climb rate.

rmackay9 c62cc4844e ArduCopter: updated firmware to simply 2.6 (i.e. removed Epsilon) ahead of the release 2012-06-15 00:42:59 +09:00
Jason Short c42f9ece43 Inertial Control
I added inertial navigation based on the simulator data. This is an option only available if you compile with Arduino and set
#define INERTIAL_NAV ENABLED
in the APM_Config.h file.

This has been tested for one real flight and did not crash my quad, but consider it very alpha. The quad may be unpredictable at first until the error correction fixes poorly calibrated accels. Be Careful.

Most of the real work is in the inertia file, but the error correction, new variable defines and calibration calls are sprinkled throughout.

The Log should record RAW messages with special debugging values.

Jason Short 730476fdfd ACM -
Implemented automatic ranging of Alt Hold gains. Works well in simulator and testing.
- alt hold estimation moved to 50 hz
- simple fixed observer calc for smooth and accurate climb rates useful for derivative calcs
- auto-reset of the I term by moving I value into throttle value. This recalcs the gain every 20seconds for battery drainage compensation in long flights.
- remove filtering for Nav_throttle
- added a way to lower the gain on nav_throttle for descents by / climb_rate error by 2 - seems to work OK and keeps copter from dropping like a rock when the Baro drifts quickly lower.
- removed old throttle hold set point code
- made throttle override for alt hold +- 200 vs 250

Jason Short a924c3685e Based on Jani's latest logs I've made two tweaks to alt hold.
The first is to remove the filter on the throttle output for alt_hold.

The second was to open up the constraint on climb rate. This is to deal with larger than expected disturbances causing altitude changes.

Doug Weibel ed9f7cb1b6 Update battery monitoring code for ArduCopter
Fixes compatibility for APM2.  Also a significant update to the battery monitoring code:  We previously had monitoring modes for individual cell voltages for 3 and 4 cell lipos.  These have been removed as they were never really supported (the cell voltages were computed but were not reported or recorded anywhere).  Also, some clean-up/prep work was done for supporting monitoring 2 separate battery packs.  The CLI battery and current monitoring tests were consolidated into 1 test.

Randy Mackay bbe6dea980 OptFlow - initial support for APM2 (there are still problems) including adding ability to set Chip Select pin.
Other unrelated changes are:
a) fixed typo in 'esitmate_velocity' to 'estimate_velocity'.
b) moved init_compass from system.pde to sensors.pde which seemed consistent with other sensors.
