d0a6359b37 Compass: use constructor to set initial values for _learn and _use_for_yaw
this ensures they are set if you have MAG_ENABLE==0

900388a85a DCM: disable compass null offsets when setting initial yaw
we need to ensure the compass null offsets code doesn't see a sudden
yaw change, or it will change the offsets by a large amount very
suddenly

f59297d7a7 Compass: catch the case of a user enabling a compass mid-flight
if a compass has not been initialised at startup we can't enable it
mid-flight, as we don't have the orientation

eb71b26d3f DCM: use the new use_for_yaw() compass method 2012-02-25 14:51:09 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell
664622523d Compass: added COMPASS_LEARN and COMPASS_USE parameters
these allow you to control if the compass should be used for yaw and
if it should learn its offsets. This is useful for locking in compass
offsets once they are confirmed to be good, and for learning offsets
without using them in flights.

The default is to behave the same as previously, which is
COMPASS_LEARN=1 and COMPASS_USE=1

5e2fbdb6cf DCM: don't reset _have_initial_yaw for GPS heading unless very slow
wait till we reach 1m/s before we reset _have_initial_yaw. This
prevents us continually resetting the DCM matrix if our ground speed
is close to 3m/s.

2e9105c68a AP_Param: added special handling for Vector3f
We would like to be able to use Vector3f as a parameter while exposing
the individual elements of the vector as MAVLink parameters. This
change to AP_Param makes that possible, by giving AP_Vector3f a dual
personality

55e33c3359 DCM: tidy up use of error_course and in_motion
in_motion is not a good name now it is also used for the compass

The error_course and heading component values don't need to be part of
the DCM object, they can be on the stack to reduce the memory usage a bit

ab8cc3d478 DCM: use rotation_matrix_from_euler() to calculate initial yaw
When we first get a compass reading or we first start motion we need
to setup the DCM matrix with the right yaw. This uses
rotation_matrix_from_euler() to get a DCM matrix corresponding to our
current roll/pitch, but with the correct yaw

c354879f1f Compass: ensure we don't produce NAN values for compass heading
this leaves the previous heading values alone if we are at a pitch of
exactly 90 or -90, at which point we can't compute a meaningful
heading

17d16bc8c6 AP_Math: added safe_sqrt() function
this function will never return NAN. It will return zero for negative
numbers.

bad653f230 DCM: tidy up the nan checking in DCM
use is_nan() on the matrix rather than just on c.x, and add
safe_asin() to the (unused) OUTPUTMODE==2 code.

c8e6d03c67 DCM: added matrix recovery on reset
when we get a bad DCM error we can recover a matrix corresponding to
the current attitude, making it more likely that the aircraft will be
able to recover

ef90f336d3 DCM: changed the sense of floating point range comparison
This allows us to detect NaN, otherwise NaN values were considered 
'in range'

57ffd00b69 DCM: range check the matrix before calculating pitch
The asin() in the pitch calculation can only take values between -1
and 1. This change ensures that the value is in range, and if it isn't
then we force a normalization. If that fails we reset the matrix

2bb58db3f7 DCM: reset more values on renorm blowup
when DCM blows up, we need to reset a lot more variables to ensure
that any NaN values don't persist

156d98cb9f DCM: remove the taylor expansion optimisation for renormalisation
The sqrt() costs about 44usec on a 2560, which is small enough for us
not to worry about the speed.

This also changes the range of values where we declare a blowup to
much less likely, which means we can cope with larger delta_t glitches

9793d04ed1 SITL: increase the amount of noise in the simulated ADC
this increases the noise to 2 bits, which actually can have the effect
of improving accuracy, as it leads to better averaging

d52cb7e574 DCM: only add in centripetal accel if we have GPS lock
if we don't have a GPS or the GPS doesn't have a good lock then we
can't rely on the ground speed for adjusting the acceleration vector

7f3858cb7f AP_Param: added a set_and_save_ifchanged() method

62b104cbfa Found free extra 256 bytes of RAM eliminate _clz use from libgcc
Believe it or not, changing / 2^31 to >>31 saved 256 bytes in the "d" segment.

The reason is that GCC version prior to 4.3.5 does not have a count_leading_zeros (clz) assembler macro, so it uses a 256 byte lookup table called _clz
The _clz table gets pulled in if you do 64 bit division.
This tiny change is the only place that we do long long division.
Changing to a shift saves 256 bytes of ram.

79d622939a ADC: on channel overflow we should not zero last_ch6_micros
this happens every 64 seconds because of unused channels on the
ADC. Zeroing this creates a bad delta_t value for the DCM code.

down.
