Andrew Tridgell c084a72723 pysim: ensure Vector3() uses floats 2012-03-29 12:39:53 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 0f6e7a1449 pysim: implement partial 3D acceleration support
The simulator flies very badly when using the full acceleration
code. I don't yet know if this is a bug in the simulation or a problem
with AHRS not handling acceleration for multicopters.

For now set the acceleration to be half a 'pure gravity' acceleration
and half from the full 3D calculation.

Andrew Tridgell f1acdb13c2 pysim: added experimental acceleration support 2012-03-23 16:48:52 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 5f3e2cf98a pysim: update the multicopter simulator with correct acceleration
this re-works the multicopter simulator in terms of rotation matrices,
and adds full acceleration support, which means it will include linear
acceleration affects and centripetal acceleration

Andrew Tridgell 39d0d7ed49 autotest: fixed body/earth frames in sim_quad physics model
Jason, can you have a look at this?

Andrew Tridgell dedbfc8cca autotest: estimate the cost of sleeping for more accurate frame rate
this gets us quite close to 1kHz simulation
2011-12-03 07:38:51 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 5be56a824d autotest: run the quad simulation at a much higher rate
it now defaults to 1kHz

Andrew Tridgell 66d65121cc autotest: switch to big-endian metric packets internally
now that all the sim code is internal to the APM git repo, we can
choose saner packet formats
