Randy Mackay d2bd818b2d Copter: bug fix for auto_armed logic
Zero throttle when switching into an auto flight mode would cause the
motors to stop.
2013-04-17 21:28:42 +09:00
Andrew Tridgell 501eb4f0b4 Copter: made more variables static 2013-04-17 21:35:11 +10:00
Randy Mackay a185fa950c Copter: Jason's fix to auto disarming
Added check so that it only starts counting down when motors are armed.
This removes the issue in which the copter sometimes disarms shortly
aftering being armed.

James Bielman 7374e5d84e ArduCopter: Use 16-bit arithmetic when comparing event tick counters.
- On the ARM, once the tick counter wrapped, we stopped running events

2012-12-08 15:12:39 -05:00
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.

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
2012-12-06 10:31:52 +09:00

rmackay9 3cbef57c64 ArduCopter: first merge of leonard's accel based altitude controller plus other changes from Randy
Changes include:
New low-level get_throttle_accel function takes target acceleration and compares vs earth-frame Z accelerometer values to produce output to motors.
Higher level throttle controllers modified to call new get_throttle_accel controller
Throttle_rate_stabilized controller added which maintains a desired climb/descent rate
Throttle_land controller added - descends using normal auto throttle controller to 10m then descends at 50cm/s
Multiple throttle modes added including landing mode
Land flight mode no longer needs GPS
Throttle cruise maintenance moved to update_throttle_cruise function

Removing Angle Boost function.
Does not make sense for helis due to aerodynamics.  Can cause more problems than it solves.
2012-11-26 18:58:21 -05:00
Robert Lefebvre 8056b78c55 ACM: TradHeli
Remove Rate I-term reset when throttle stick is on the bottom.  This could be very bad for helis since it's plausible to use full downstick while flying.
There is obviously a risk here of building up a false I-term on the ground but this isn't a good solution for that anyway.
Also removed what appears to be some deadwood.
