instead select a roll limit for takeoff and landing
 2013-04-12 21:59:52 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 575f346e85 Plane: removed HIL_MODE_ATTITUDE 
we really need full sensors for HIL with the L1 controller. The flight
is also _much_ better with sensors HIL.
 2013-04-12 17:44:40 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 11eb0cfce1 Plane: update for new AP_Navigation controller class 
this switches ArduPlane over to use the L1 navigation controller, via
a generic nav_controller object pointer.

Note that the nav_controller controls all types of navigation now,
including level flight and heading hold. This provides a cleaner
abstraction than the old method of special case navigation handling

Andrew Tridgell c5e2cfcc3e Plane: preparing for 2.71-beta 2013-04-02 09:25:24 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 2506c216dd Plane: added a second type of stick mixing 
this changes STICK_MIXING from a boolean to a tri-state. With
STICK_MIXING=1 it now uses FBW style mixing. With STICK_MIXING=2 it
uses the old style of direct stick mixing.
 2013-04-02 08:52:56 +11:00

 2013-03-30 14:38:43 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 6cc4aadc06 Plane: report compass health in SYS_STATUS 2013-03-29 13:48:40 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell a165f0d138 Plane: removed old angle wrap code 2013-03-29 13:13:50 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 7db7d7db77 Plane: change FBWB altitude control algorithm 
this makes FBWB much less sensitive to airframe tuning. When the
elevator stick first goes neutral it locks in the current altitude as
the target altitude. When the elevator stick is off neutral, it moves
the target altitude in proportion to the elevator, at a rate goverened
by the new FBWB_CLIMB_RATE parameter

This prevents the aircraft from slowly drifting in altitude in FBWB,
and gives a more intuitive control mechanism for altitude.

Thanks to Chris Miser from Falcon UAV for help in designing this
change
 2013-03-28 10:27:25 +11:00

Randy Mackay c2055557f5 Plane: add support for GPS fix type 2D 2013-03-27 11:41:51 +09:00
Andrew Tridgell f077f54e6a Plane: added TKOFF_HEAD_HOLD option 
this allows control over whether ArduPlane tries to hold heading
during auto takeoff. For hand launches it can be better to hold the
wings level and not attempt to hold heading during takeoff to prevent
the possibility of a stall during the climb out.

Thanks to Chris Miser from Falcon UAV for the feedback that led to
this option.

Andrew Tridgell 5f3ffe4839 APM: switch to Randys new IMU rate control method 
this drives the speed of the 50Hz loop by the number of samples
accumulated in the IMU. This should give much more consistent timing
in DCM.

Thanks to Randy for introducing this scheme in ArduCopter!
 2012-09-11 16:39:36 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 7e672628ea APM: removed the GPS_enabled flag 
this fixes using GPS_PROTOCOL to specify a specific GPS with a GPS
that takes a few updates before it works (eg. needing baud rate
changes).

This makes it easier to use an APM1-1280 with more features enabled
 2012-09-11 13:37:34 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell c9a299665c APM: added speed scaling to wheeled steering

 2012-09-10 09:40:29 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell feb3fe77ce APM: simplify radio_trim code 
this removes the duplicate code. Throttle trim is not changed.
 2012-09-09 19:39:09 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 5c3595e0dc APM: fixed throttle nudging 
The nudge value depended on RC3_TRIM, which is not a reliable
value. It tried to only take effect when the throttle stick was above
50%, but if RC3_TRIM was high for some reason (say 1500) then it would
actually depress the throttle by a large amount, which could cause the
plane to stall.

This also adds a boolean option THROTTLE_NUDGE to allow disabling of
throttle nudging

Andrew Tridgell 68705fe7e6 APM: accumulate mag readings during spare cycles in ArduPlane 
With this change we average over 100 mag readings per compass.read()
call, which means we are reading the compass at over 1kHz instead of
10Hz. The noise reduction is huge.

 2012-08-28 20:09:10 -07:00
Andrew Tridgell e2b8817a89 APM: added the ability to forcibly crash the plane on OBC failsafe breach 
this allows a user to setup the OBC failsafe system to forcibly crash
the plane (surfaces at limits, zero throttle) when the failsafe system
triggers. This is to allow APM to be used in the Outback Challenge. In
the OBC an external failsafe board also does this using the heartbeat
control pin, so this is an extra safety mechanism.

To prevent users accidentially triggering a crash, this code only
activates if FS_TERM_ACTION is set to to the magic value 42.
 2012-08-28 20:18:24 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell fce01464b1 APM: added ALT_CTRL_ALG parameter 
this allows you to select different altitude control algorithms. The
current choices are for the default (automatic based on if airspeed is
available), or to force a non-airspeed algorithm

The idea is to make it possible to use airspeed for some things (like
wind speed, speed scaling) but not for alt control

Andrew Tridgell d13d117e61 APM: removed reset_I() and instead auto-reset integrator in PID library 
this prevents us resetting key integrators on waypoint change, while
still preventing old integrators being used when a PID starts to be
used again
 2012-08-28 20:18:23 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell dcbd0fbd44 APM: cleanup throttle suppression code and don't use airspeed to unsupress 
this removes the throttle suppression when any of the conditions are
met once, as otherwise flying slow below 10m could zero the throttle.

It also removes the use of airspeed for disabling throttle
supression. Otherwise a strong gust of wind can cause ArduPlane to
try to takeoff!

Andrew Tridgell 034fb5b194 APM: fixed hil build 2012-08-16 12:53:37 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell d27e51f20a APM: allow telemetry send during parameter and waypoint fetch 
this slows down telemetry by a factor of 4 during parameter or
waypoint transmit. That ensures that mode changes and gps position are
still updated during a long parameter fetch
 2012-08-16 10:50:12 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell ed064b2506 MAVLink: enable fetching of single parameters 
this makes it possible for the GCS to fetch a single parameter by
name, which is useful for parameters that change in flight
 2012-08-16 10:14:46 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell c960db7af5 APM: allow for separate calibration of airspeed/barometer 
this is useful just before takeoff, to account for temperature changes
 2012-08-15 19:49:09 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell ad73c229ab APM: added LAND_FLARE_ALT and LAND_FLARE_SEC 
these allow you to configure the altitude and time before touchdown to
flare the plane and lock the heading. Useful on larger planes.

Andrew Tridgell 1252ddfe0c APM: rename RDRSTEER to WHEELSTEER 
thanks to Jon for the suggestion
 2012-08-15 16:28:59 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell ffbd229841 APM: use AHRS position for geo-fence 
this allows it to take account of dead-reckoning
 2012-08-15 14:31:10 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell df3c8a5bc0 APM: when land_complete is true, use land_pitch 
this gives a flare on final landing
 2012-08-15 12:39:35 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 2d7fcbd14b APM: reload airspeed and throttle after landing 
this allows for restarting a mission after landing with reasonable
airspeed values
 2012-08-15 12:39:35 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 47be6d8ad1 AP_Airspeed: remove airspeed filter and run at 10Hz 
this saves on the filter memory, and gives just as good a result
 2012-08-15 12:39:35 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell e26e8b3b67 APM: added RDRSTEER_ PID for steering on ground 
this allows for rolling takeoff with steering, and use of rudder in
landing

Andrew Tridgell 52064772ee APM: report speed changes via MAVLink 2012-08-15 12:39:35 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 817017658d APM: implement FENCE_ACTION_REPORT 
when FENCE_ACTION is set to FENCE_ACTION_REPORT a fence breach is
reported, but the flight mode is not changed
 2012-08-15 12:39:35 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 8cb55eb75a APM: keep the time of the last heartbeat message 
this will be used for failsafe processing
 2012-08-15 12:39:34 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 0584017aff APM: expose change_command() and geofence_breached() to libraries 
this makes a failsafe library easier
