Andrew Tridgell 89a10c584d Quaternion: added more numerical safety in the quaternion code
prevent infinities from creeping in and prevent large drift changes

Andrew Tridgell f71311fdc0 Quaternion: fix the gyro bias in centripetal and remove smoothing
the centripetal code needs to take account of the current gyro
bias.

It turned out that the accel and gyro smoothing was causing
significant control lag, and we're better off just letting the
quaternion code handle it via its own smoothing parameters

Andrew Tridgell e445a455d0 Quaternion: use GPS to correct for linear acceleration
this gives much better pitch estimates. We should do this with the
airspeed sensor if available.

Andrew Tridgell 1ea1b500a6 Quaternion: don't update if we have a very long deltat
this can be caused by stopping the system in a debugger

Andrew Tridgell 2f5a4cdc4a Quaternion: added in reporting of gyro drift and rp/yaw errors 2012-03-10 10:34:29 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 73594199c8 AP_Quaternion: fixed build on Arduino 1.0 2012-03-10 10:34:29 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell a85ba80246 AP_Quaternion: added DCM compatibility interfaces
useful for getting the code going quickly

Andrew Tridgell 4a277f9871 fixed deltat in quaternion 2012-03-10 10:34:28 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell fb23c617fa Quaternion: added an AP_Quaternion library
this is for experimenting with the Madgwick quaternion system, to see
if it is more or less noise sensitive than DCM
