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.

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

bdb47c449a ArduCopter: pass linear altitude error to throttle rate controllers.

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.

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.

bbc7f050e5 ArduCopter GCS_MAVLink: COMMAND_LONG for arm/disarm motors 
Date: Wed, 26 Sep 2012 15:56:43 -0700
Subject: ArduCopter arm/disarm command consensus
From: Pat Hickey

    Michael,

    Per our discussion today,

    In a MAVLINK_MSG_ID_COMMAND_LONG
    A MAV_CMD of type MAV_CMD_COMPONENT_ARM_DISARM
    with component id MAV_COMP_ID_SYSTEM_CONTROL = 250,
    uses param index 1 to specify an arm/disarm motors event: 1 to arm,
    0 to disarm

    Thanks for working this out with me. Sorry to get it so completely
    wrong the first time around!

    Best
    Pat

522fa58ea5 ACM : temp fix for throttle output limit 
I had a bad crash when I lost authority. The logs showed the throttle pegged at 1000 which killed my control. We went round and round on this and somehow settled on no limit. That wasn't a good idea. This should really be hard coded into the Motors Library, but for now I'm just sticking it here.

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.

Note: perhaps the motors speed at least should be moved to a parameter within the motors class.
output_min function greatly simplified as this is handled by the AP_Motors class.
 2012-04-04 23:00:56 +09:00
rmackay9
905a445391 ArduCopter - motors.pde - changed references to "motor_armed" to "motors.armed()" because we've moved to using the AP_Motors class. 
Simplified set_servos_4 function which was responsible for calling "output_motors_armed" or "output_motors_disarmed" as this determination as to whether the motors are armed or not is handled within the AP_Motors class.

rmackay9
ee308ea06c ArduCopter - increased firmware version to 118. Removed nearly all heli parameters as these are all created by the AP_MotorHeli class now. 
Note: we cannot move the heli_servos to the AP_MotorHeli class yet because of a small issue in the parameters class.
 2012-04-04 22:55:07 +09:00
rmackay9
8402a3d837 ArduCopter - Log.pde - changed MOT output to dataflash to take values from AP_Motors class's motor_out array instead of the global motor_out array. 2012-04-04 22:53:21 +09:00

rmackay9
aa4085183c ArduCopter - Attitude.pde - moved heli_get_angle_boost from heli.pde (which will be removed) to Attitude.pde. In fact we should combine heli_get_angle_boost and the regular get_angle_boost. 2012-04-04 22:51:39 +09:00
rmackay9
54a0709759 ArduCopter - add includes for new AP_Motors classes. 
Remove global motor_filtered and motor_out arrays.
Removed all global heli variables.
replace "motor_armed" with "motors.armed()"
removed output to rc_4 for tri because this is now handled by AP_MotorsTri class

c0a54762c6 MAVLink: port the new adaptive flow control to ArduCopter

you are using a 3DR radio
 2012-04-02 11:18:53 +10:00
rmackay9
75d7308fb4 ArduCopter - CH6 tuning - changed Roll/Pitch Rate D tuning to use the user supplied tuning range instead of the range / 100. 
also changed heli_ext_gyro_gain to make it use the tuning range directly.

e0bb7e2777 MAVLink: don't waste 100 bytes of bandwidth sending 1 byte of information 
the GPS_STATUS message is a massive waste of bandwidth, but it is the
only message that tells us the number of visible satellites. So only
send it if that information changes.

This makes MAVLink work better at low baud rates

b4107d35e8 MAVLink: raise the serial transmit buffer size to 256 bytes 
the 128 byte serial transmit buffer was causing significant problems
with queueing of mavlink messages. With 256 bytes we can fit a lot
more messages out in each pass of the code, which makes telemetry more
efficient

As we discussed on the dev call, we now have enough free ram for this
to be worthwhile

0bc604f030 ACM: removed FORCE_AUTOMATIC_DECLINATION_UPDATE

 2012-03-30 14:25:27 +11:00
Adam M Rivera
51b70e4d36 ArduCopter: Changed implementation of configuration value for automatic declination. There is now a FORCE_AUTOMATIC_DECLINATION_UPDATE that when enabled will update the declination on every GPS 3D fix regardless of whether or not the user saved a value to the EEPROM. By default the declination will only be set by the automatic declination routine if the user has not saved a declination to the EEPROM. 2012-03-30 14:25:06 +11:00

Implemented automatic ranging of Alt Hold gains. Works well in simulator and testing.

- 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

Hi Pat,
This may have been my WIP for the Mavlink 1.0 conversion. I tried to
give Tridge a head start on it. I've made small updates to it in
parallel to the current Mavlink. You can delete it as he would have used
it by now if he felt it was helpful.
