Robert Lefebvre a9349a6e87 More CopterLEDS changes. 
Merged CopterLEDS and Piezo functions to eliminate pin conflict on APM2.  Created new Parameter bit to turn piezo function on and off from MP. Moved GPS and Aux pin assignments to allow commonality between APM1 and 2.  Set LED_Mode parameter default to 9 in order to make CopterLEDS completely backwards compatible with old Motor LEDS and Piezo code.  Legacy users should see no difference.

rmackay9 023378a214 ArduCopter - Parameters.h - changed initialisation order to remove compiler warning (have not changed enum values so shouldn't require eeprom format id update) 2012-04-09 17:37:06 +09:00
rmackay9 c7edd7857c ArduCopter - added dataflash logging of roll and pitch rate controllers 2012-04-08 10:19:20 +09:00
rmackay9 0607be8ea5 ArduCopter - removed unused motor pde files including heli.pde, motors_hexa.pde, motors_octa.pde, motors_octa_quad.pde, motors_tri.pde and motors_y6.pde 2012-04-04 23:06:12 +09:00
rmackay9 2128085576 ArduCopter - test.pde - changed references "motor_armed" to "motors.armed()" as part of move to AP_Motors library. 
Change to ESC initialisation calls to use motors.throttle_pass_through method of AP_Motors class.
 2012-04-04 23:05:26 +09:00
rmackay9 2fc3b740c4 ArduCopter - system.pde - changed references to "motor_armed" to "motors.armed()" as part of the move to use AP_Motors library. 2012-04-04 23:03:21 +09:00
rmackay9 5e2147de1f ArduCopter - setup.pde - changed cli for helicopter to call the new AP_Motors class's parameters instead of the global parameters.

 2012-04-04 23:02:29 +09:00
rmackay9 1701cac0b1 ArduCopter - radio.pde - changed motor initialisation to set update rate, frame orientation, min and max throttle to AP_Motors class. 
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 0f4203a755 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.
 2012-04-04 22:58:42 +09:00
rmackay9 00d540bfa9 ArduCopter - leds.pde - changed refrences to "motor_armed" to "motors.armed()" 2012-04-04 22:57:50 +09:00
rmackay9 ffd77f58ab ArduCopter - removed references to MOT_1 etc as these are now within the AP_Motors class (i.e. MOT_1 has become AP_MOTORS_MOT_1) 2012-04-04 22:56:07 +09:00
rmackay9 929e933b69 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 acc24291f3 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 86d2a9ffdb ArduCopter - GCS_Mavlink.pde - changed output to ground station to use new AP_Motor's class motors array inplace of the global "motor_out" array. 2012-04-04 22:52:26 +09:00
rmackay9 23c3f25654 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 544237d60a 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
 2012-04-04 22:50:43 +09:00
Andrew Tridgell 40d7b07789 MAVLink: port the new adaptive flow control to ArduCopter 
This allows for arbitrary stream rates, and supports flow control if
you are using a 3DR radio
 2012-04-02 11:18:53 +10:00
rmackay9 b0c9a25024 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.
 2012-03-31 09:28:25 +09:00
Andrew Tridgell 1e0a2fb0be 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
 2012-03-30 17:46:20 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 0985327331 ACM: use set_blocking_writes(false) when we arm motors 2012-03-30 17:46:20 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 36e741b078 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
 2012-03-30 17:46:20 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 58f539ca35 ACM: removed FORCE_AUTOMATIC_DECLINATION_UPDATE 
we now have the EEPROM option COMPASS_AUTODEC instead
 2012-03-30 14:25:27 +11:00
Adam M Rivera 0727955fe3 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
rmackay9 a12a7a7d87 ArduCopter - added CH6_STABILIZE_KD tuning value 2012-03-29 21:09:41 +09:00
rmackay9 2cc87af180 Added multiple new tuning parameters to the inflight channel 6 tuning feature: 
#define CH6_YAW_KI 24
        #define CH6_ACRO_KP 25
        #define CH6_YAW_RATE_KD 26
        #define CH6_LOITER_KI 27

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.
