Added Yaw control when descending in Alt hold
lowered kP & kD for Alt hold a tad
Adjusted RTL behavior to do speed control up to 4m to home, then go into Loiter

Before: -> After
Stabilize P –> Stabilize P (Use NG values, or 8.3 x the older AC2 value)
Stabilize I –> Stabilize I (Stays same value)
Stabilize D –> Rate P (Stays same value)
–> Rate I (new)
Added a new value – an I term for rate. The old stabilization routines did not use this term. Please refer to the config.h file to read more about the new PIDs.
Added framework for using DCM corrected Accelerometer rates. Code is commented out for now.
Added set home at Arming.
Crosstrack is now a full PID loop, rather than just a P gain for more control.
Throttle now slews when switching out of Alt hold or Auto modes for less jarring transitions
Sonar and Baro PIDs are now combined into a throttle PID Yaw control is completely re-written.
Added Octa_Quad support - Max

Slighted tuned down D term in Loiter PIDs after testing, tuned up P slightly
fixed alt hold bug cause when gaining 3D lock in alt hold.
Mavlink now reports correct throttle scaling value in mavlink

new Loiter PIDs
tuned down control on standard frame
shunk the mixing range for sonar from 3 meters to 2 meters
added framework for Guided mode - not tested!
removed pitch and roll deadzone
decoupled SIMPLE mode from LOITER PIDs
Synced Mavlink with APM
Logs report correct WP number now.
disabled Sonar spike filter.

Reverted to prior Rangefinderlib in case that was causing bad sonar readings.
reduced crosstrack gains and max angle to avoid overshoots and oscillations.
added additional D gain to Loiter hold to prevent overshoots
added D gain to WP_nav to avoid speed oscillations
upped navigation speed to 6m/s from 4.5m/s
git-svn-id: https://arducopter.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@2710 f9c3cf11-9bcb-44bc-f272-b75c42450872
Fixed Mavlink issue
Added look at home option for SIMPLE mode. Off be default. Untested.
Upped performance of Yaw.
git-svn-id: https://arducopter.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@2695 f9c3cf11-9bcb-44bc-f272-b75c42450872
changed Yaw to be offset from current angle to avoid the kick back.
Made minimum motor speed user settable, upped to 13% (130)
tweaked alt hold D to be higher and P to be slightly lower.
git-svn-id: https://arducopter.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@2579 f9c3cf11-9bcb-44bc-f272-b75c42450872
Includes updated motor tests. These need to be verified.
Nav loiter D was added (.03) - verify this helps.
Nav_lat is now filtered for Rate control. This is to keep jerky pitching to a minimum.
git-svn-id: https://arducopter.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@2448 f9c3cf11-9bcb-44bc-f272-b75c42450872
Added Octo Support
Fixed Loiter issue regarding Yaw towards loiter location
Added Yaw control alternative for testing
decreased Yaw deadband to +-5°
revved to 2.0.10
git-svn-id: https://arducopter.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@2389 f9c3cf11-9bcb-44bc-f272-b75c42450872
Changes log step default to zero by recommendation from John C. Not sure why it works, Compiler should init to 0 by default.
git-svn-id: https://arducopter.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@2362 f9c3cf11-9bcb-44bc-f272-b75c42450872
updated motor setup test to be sequencial pulses of the motors in CW order.
Fixed Mission scripting logic
fixed Free yaw error in neutral throttle
fixed D term issue with Baro hold - was too high
incremented firmware revision, removed frame var
removed setup show from startup
removed unused EEPROM functions
fixed broken demo mission
fixed non working loiter with delay
git-svn-id: https://arducopter.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@2275 f9c3cf11-9bcb-44bc-f272-b75c42450872
removed throttle integrator until I have more time to deal with the data
tweaked control loops to be more like RC1 for Max to try. They fly great BTW
tweaked config to be more better.
Mavlink - only cosmetic tweaks
git-svn-id: https://arducopter.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@2254 f9c3cf11-9bcb-44bc-f272-b75c42450872
The trunk is unstable, so please be careful. I've made a lot of changes based on the Sparkfun challange. Most include how we handle things like altitude, but the mission scripting has also been updated as well.
git-svn-id: https://arducopter.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@1920 f9c3cf11-9bcb-44bc-f272-b75c42450872
better handling of sonar at angles and baro mixing. - optimized for flats.
Crosstrack test bug found and fixed.

Takeoff now works well.
better logging.
tuned down kD for Yaw - was causing some bad behavior.
Auto mission now resets when entering mode.

Logs updated to do better Yaw Debugging
Landing is now rate limited
updated command desctiption.
