Andrew Tridgell 9c3c1c4f54 APM: fixed hil build 2012-08-16 12:53:37 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 5ebcf425cf APM: allow telemetry send during parameter and waypoint fetch
this slows down telemetry by a factor of 4 during parameter or
waypoint transmit. That ensures that mode changes and gps position are
still updated during a long parameter fetch
2012-08-16 10:50:12 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 0a7d8a4933 MAVLink: enable fetching of single parameters
this makes it possible for the GCS to fetch a single parameter by
name, which is useful for parameters that change in flight
2012-08-16 10:14:46 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 41a974683e Quaternion: we no longer support acceleration in the GPS driver
remove the linear acceleration compensation code
2012-08-15 20:07:53 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 79aae2114c GPS: support getting raw velocity values from a UBlox
this may give better velocity numbers than the value from COG
2012-08-15 20:06:35 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell a1107602e9 APM: allow for separate calibration of airspeed/barometer
this is useful just before takeoff, to account for temperature changes
2012-08-15 19:49:09 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell efee2b1557 APM: added LAND_FLARE_ALT and LAND_FLARE_SEC
these allow you to configure the altitude and time before touchdown to
flare the plane and lock the heading. Useful on larger planes.

Andrew Tridgell 455e088c9f APM: rename RDRSTEER to WHEELSTEER
thanks to Jon for the suggestion
2012-08-15 16:28:59 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell c652538516 APM: use AHRS position for geo-fence
this allows it to take account of dead-reckoning
2012-08-15 14:31:10 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 3f76a4cc61 SITL: use rudder steering in APM autotest 2012-08-15 12:53:05 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 20be77ab32 APM: when land_complete is true, use land_pitch
this gives a flare on final landing
2012-08-15 12:39:35 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell b8521ff9ae APM: reload airspeed and throttle after landing
this allows for restarting a mission after landing with reasonable
airspeed values
2012-08-15 12:39:35 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell f4023d1b44 AP_Airspeed: remove airspeed filter and run at 10Hz
this saves on the filter memory, and gives just as good a result
2012-08-15 12:39:35 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell a361a3aebd AP_AnalogSource: make read_average() return a float
this allows it to take advantage of better than 1 bit resolution by
averaging
2012-08-15 12:39:35 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 4b5d98e65b APM: added RDRSTEER_ PID for steering on ground
this allows for rolling takeoff with steering, and use of rudder in
landing
2012-08-15 12:39:35 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell ce5f3dcfe2 APM: report speed changes via MAVLink 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 7bb8fa1e58 MAVLink: added FENCE_ACTION_REPORT 2012-08-15 12:39:35 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 44852276da AHRS: added ahrs.yaw_initialised()
this allows the high level code to know if the AHRS driver has a
reliable yaw estimate
2012-08-15 12:39:34 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 90bf9c62bb SITL: added a test script for starting in Kingaroy
we use this for OBC testing
2012-08-15 12:39:34 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 8c3b6f471f APM: keep the time of the last heartbeat message
this will be used for failsafe processing
2012-08-15 12:39:34 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell b54ab2d72a APM: expose change_command() and geofence_breached() to libraries
this makes a failsafe library easier
2012-08-15 12:39:34 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell dd17302def APM: show waypoint number in jump message 2012-08-15 12:39:34 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell c525b6b997 APM: minor formatting fix 2012-08-15 12:39:34 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell b018d7ba77 SITL: make it easier to start ArduPlane SITL at any location
this generates a jsbsim startup XML file from a template
2012-08-15 12:39:34 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 93f45f232f APM: added 'OBC' failsafe module for ArduPlane
this adds FS_* parameters for setting up APM to follow the outback
challenge failsafe rules.

This includes:

 - manual pin
 - heartbeat pin
 - waypoint for heartbeat failure
 - waypoint for GPS failure
2012-08-15 12:39:34 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 98015636d9 APM: interpret zero lat/lng as being current location
this makes it easy to have a "loiter in current position" mission
element
2012-08-15 12:39:34 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 98d5a49717 APM: fixed LOITER_TIME and LOITER_TURNS
These now follow the mavlink spec. Loiter time is in seconds, and
loiter turns is now 32 bit angle, so can handle larger numbers of
turns.

Jason Short 5d64942f01 ACM: Switched to filtered_loc for distance calcs 2012-08-14 14:11:52 -07:00
Jason Short cbd4661b96 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.

2012-08-14 12:14:35 +09:00
rmackay9 71710b4514 AutoTest: set RTL's APPROACH_ALT to zero to force the copter to land instead of hanging out at 2m and causing the auto test to time out 2012-08-14 12:03:32 +09:00
rmackay9 34517349db AutoTest: update failsafe timeout to 180 to give it more time to pass. 2012-08-14 11:25:10 +09:00

Andrew Tridgell 562069cbd7 AHRS: avoid a compiler bug in quaternion code
Having _wind in the AP_AHRS class causes a register allocation error
when building the Quaternion code with some versions of avr-gcc. Quite
bizarre.
