Randy Mackay 8e0cacad39 Copter: disable low battery events when usb connected 2013-09-09 21:27:05 +09:00
Kevin Hester 240a9ccaf0 AC: if vehicle is !flying show hb state as MAV_STATE_STANDBY
This helps GCSes determine the appropriate UI for the current vehicle
mode.

2013-09-09 19:19:11 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 7b3a674d66 AP_InertialSensor: added set_default_filter() method 2013-09-09 19:18:52 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell ad9a605603 autotest: removed APM1-1280 from rover build
it no longet fits with the new L1 controller
2013-09-09 19:14:39 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 229841052a AP_Compass_PX4: removed MAGIOCSSAMPLERATE call 2013-09-09 18:04:41 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell d000cd2320 Rover: switched to new steering controller
this uses a steering rate controller, based upon the planes roll
controller
2013-09-09 18:04:41 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell c044385fff AP_AHRS: added groundspeed() method
this gives ground speed in m/s from GPS
2013-09-09 18:04:41 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 0918393fed APM_Control: fixed some documentation typos 2013-09-09 18:04:40 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 7413c15959 APM_Control: added a ground vehicle steering controller
this will be used both for the rover code, and for ground steering of
a plane on takeoff
2013-09-09 18:04:40 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 887942471e Rover: use Y accel computed from gyro and velocity
this should be less susceptible to noise and attitude errors,
hopefully leading to better learning
2013-09-09 18:04:40 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell ecccc05eed Rover: added STEERING_LEARN parameter
when enabled (set to 1) it will learn TURN_CIRCLE based on the
demanded and actual lateral acceleration
2013-09-09 18:04:40 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell f5d20b4085 SITL: reduce the minimum accel and gyro noise
on APM2 and PX4 we do a lot of smoothing of accels and gyros, so a 2
bit error isn't a good representation of the min noise
2013-09-09 18:04:40 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 6c2f623df2 Rover: send y accel in m/s/s as nav_pitch
this allows for easier tuning in MissionPlanner
2013-09-09 18:04:40 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 7789f0d133 Rover: don't use throttle_nudge in steering mode 2013-09-09 18:04:40 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 97ed733ada Rover: use L1 controller for navigation
this uses the AP_L1_Control library for rover navigation
2013-09-09 18:04:40 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 396c4f30d2 AP_InertialSensor_PX4: don't set QUEUEDEPTH
the default of 2 samples is fine
2013-09-09 18:04:40 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell db14a85fc5 AP_Compass: added more debugging to AP_Compass_PX4 driver
this helps debug compass initialisation issues
2013-09-09 18:04:40 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 8b80beadc4 PX4: make FMUv2 identify itself differently
so we can tell which is which in logs
2013-09-09 18:04:40 +10:00
Randy Mackay 1d55fa6818 Copter: add arm check of GPS hdop when in Loiter 2013-09-09 14:03:40 +09:00
Randy Mackay 1abb439051 Copter: move acro's var initialisation to roll-pitch and yaw controller initialisation 2013-09-09 10:54:13 +09:00
Randy Mackay 942ba0476b Copter: remove manual_attitude and throttle flags 2013-09-09 10:44:53 +09:00
Randy Mackay b7579bb028 Copter: move init of global nav variables to set_nav_mode 2013-09-09 10:37:44 +09:00
Randy Mackay 4842335a24 Copter: add #include for AC_Sprayer 2013-09-09 10:18:06 +09:00
Randy Mackay 13ee672eae Copter: remove unused get_acro_pitch and roll 2013-09-09 10:11:23 +09:00
Andrew Tridgell f6688582a6 Plane: added FENCE_ACTION=3 behaviour
this makes it safer to enable the geofence as a receiver failsafe
mode. It retains manual throttle control, so if it triggers on the
ground due to the receiver losing signal from the transmitter then the
throttle can be kept low, preventing an unexpected takeoff.
2013-09-08 07:31:10 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 7328369b91 GCS_MAVLink: added FENCE_ACTION_GUIDED_THR_PASS 2013-09-08 07:29:30 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell ff0f6bcd42 AP_InertialSensor: fixed example build 2013-09-07 21:03:59 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 905c84bb4c PX4: move PX4IO update to before any sensors start
this seems to make the update much more reliable, possibly as it
avoids an interrupt load from l3gd20 driver
2013-09-07 17:39:51 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell b8b72819c1 AP_Compass: ignore COMPASS_ORIENT for internal compass
this means if COMPASS_ORIENT is not 0 and the external compass fails
to start on boot we don't end up with a bad compass orientation

2013-09-06 22:14:04 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell e43234874a build: avoid rebuilding PX4 archives for each copter type

this makes it run every 20s exactly
2013-09-04 13:18:00 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 879d44f930 AP_GPS: use the mask bits to only set dynamic model
this ensures we don't try to change any other CFG_NAV5 settings
2013-09-04 13:17:20 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell cfeecdae46 Rover: raise GPS serial buffer size 2013-09-04 13:17:02 +10:00

or GPS serial communication
