Robert Lefebvre 9ae66c1773 TradHeli: add support for drive tail rotors
Repurposed external gyro and made it multi-funcitonal.
required PWM on Ch8 to start the motor in RSC Mode moved up from 100 to 400. This is to facilitate two-stage switching of the motors with PWM>100 starting the tail motor, and PWM>400 starting the main motor.

texlan 78acea820f Copter: fix symmetry in stability patch for Tricopters
Removes the "Increase opposing motors by 1/2 the overage of the high
motor" logic and merely moves all 3 motors down by the same amount if
one is over out_max. This eliminates the asymmetric scaling of
the previous logic when more than one motor is over out_max. This
resolves #537

Randy Mackay 7a81c41689 AP_Motors: motor_enabled array to bool
Also increased the default MAX_THROTTLE from 850 to 1000 but this number
is always overwritten by the main code anyway so should have no
functional impact.

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

redundant flag that was already held in the main code which is where it
belongs.

Also update motor mixing
2013-04-03 22:14:29 +09:00
Randy Mackay 39ba406957 Copter: add trapezoid frame type
We still need to properly define the motor mixing for the trapezoid
frame in AP_MotorsQuad.cpp

  strictly need AP_Param.

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.
