Randy Mackay 1cfd5900a8 Copter: add support for H-quad frame
H-quads are like X quads but the motors spin in the opposite direction.
Having the motors reversed seems to help with yaw authority because of
the slight flex in bodies

Randy Mackay cb5f8826f8 Copter: Leonard's fix for trapezoidal frame
We need to allow yaw_factors to be floats in the add_motor method

belongs.

foobarbecue c07702f46d Update AP_MotorsOctaQuad.cpp
There were two "4"s in the motor test order values. Presumably a typo.

James Bielman 5631f865b2 Update floating point calculations to use floats instead of doubles.
- Allows use of hardware floating point on the Cortex-M4.
- Added "f" suffix to floating point literals.
- Call floating point versions of stdlib math functions.

Robert Lefebvre 6b1fee767a ACM: TradHeli
Creating Stab_Collective Function to allow for different collective ranges between Stabilize and other modes.
This makes for a smoother collective action in Stabilize mode with manual throttle, while still allowing full collective travel in Acro and other modes.

Robert Lefebvre 4ffc5e211a Fixing Trad Heli Ext ESC Controller
-Added ramp-down rate instead of instantly setting ramp to zero when throttle is dropped to bottom. This is to allow "warm-restart" if shutdown was unintentional.
-Actual ESC still goes to zero while throttle is dropped to the bottom, only the ramp counter winds down slowly behind the scenes.

Robert Lefebvre ed235a3924 Change to prevent Tricopter servos from going hard-over during Disarmed state.
Believe this was an oversight when the change to AP_Motors went in.
2012-07-13 23:12:26 -04:00
Robert Lefebvre 8ce9aae2f7 Instituting Yaw Differential on Multirotors. Intent is to stop "rise on yaw input".
Since motors with increasing speed due to yaw input seem to generate more thrust that motors that slow lose thrust, thus net thrust goes up, causing copter to climb.
Values are a guesstimate, proven out by test flying.  This could probably become a parameter.

rmackay9 357d6c2d9b ArduCopter: bug fix for reversing tri servo
Extended AP_MotorsTri class to take in pointer to rc_tail servo (rc_7) and we use this servo's REV parameter to determine whether to reverse the output to the tail servo or not

rmackay9 11a384a7ff AP_Motors - allow tail servo to be reversed. Closes ArduCopter issue #228 2012-04-21 23:07:57 +09:00
rmackay9 53827f2e92 AP_MotorsMatrix - fixed stability patch issue in which it would not limit a motor's output unless an opposite motor had been defined. This would only have affected Y6 frames. 2012-04-07 12:16:12 +09:00
rmackay9 127a990509 AP_MotorsOcta - V Frame - test order fix spotted by David Wiens 2012-04-07 08:11:28 +09:00
rmackay9 f6e1509d05 AP_Motors - fixed last "shadowing" compiler warning caused by badly named parameter in auto_armed method. 2012-04-05 00:28:04 +09:00
rmackay9 1e20d7de88 AP_MotorsMatrix - fixed another compiler error regarding shadowing a variable. Fixed by removing those the angle and direction arrays which weren't even used 2012-04-05 00:24:56 +09:00
rmackay9 7a8973eaf0 AP_MotorsHeli - fixed compiler warning re move_swash function declared with int parameters in .h file but actually using int16_t in .cpp file. They're the same in arduino but perhaps the build checker is a little more strict that Arduino. 2012-04-05 00:06:33 +09:00
rmackay9 926211f0f0 AP_Motors - fix compiler warning re shadowing a variable caused by badly named parameter in armed function.
Another compiler warning fixed in AP_MotorsMatrix.cpp caused by declaring "i" twice.
2012-04-04 23:59:51 +09:00
rmackay9 b71877366e ArduCopter - AP_Motors library - added new library which has few advantages over current code:
1. it's step towards rearchitecting the current code base ahead of a move to RTOS.
     2. internally it uses a MatrixTable for the Quad, Octa, OctaQuad, Y6 frames.
     3. it implements the missing stability patch for Octa and OctaQuads (still missing for Y6)

Later check-ins will incorporate into the main ArduCopter code.
