Andrew Tridgell e06f160dc9 Plane: disable rudder scaling in tailsitters 
this is most often implemented as dual-motor differential thrust, and
we don't want to do surface speed scaling for that.

In the future we'll move this scaling so it can be done on rudders for
3D planes

Michael du Breuil bd32b5deb7 Plane: update isFlying() landing check 
When we are landing a sink_rate < -0.2f means the vehicle is climbing,
which should never happen during an approach for any supported landing
type (slope or deepstall), and on hard impacts with the ground its
common for the vehicle altitude to be projected to low and climb back to
the correct altitude slowly (but at a higher rate). This changes the
check to only consider sinks while on approach as acceptable.

Andrew Tridgell 0aed5a9a57 Plane: prevent controller windup on ground 
when on the ground in an auto-throttle mode lik FBWB or CRUISE, we may
have the throttle suppressed. In that case we should not run the
multicopter controller on quadplanes, or it may build up control which
will then apply on takeoff. This is particularly severe for aircraft
that are not level on the ground, such as taildragger quadplanes

Lucas De Marchi 40fd1b346c global: remove rangefinder from AP_AHRS_NavEKF 
AP_AHRS_NavEKF doesn't use the rangefinder, it just delegates the
calls to the right estimator.

For libraries/AP_AHRS/examples/AHRS_Test/AHRS_Test.cpp the initialization
order has also been modified to match the order on vehicles. It's more
correct since it passes a reference when EKF2/EKF3 are already
constructed, while thos constructors use a pointer.  Ideally these
should be moved to an init() method though, or use a get_instance().

 2017-09-23 21:37:45 -07:00
Lucas De Marchi 18ff17e22c ArduPlane: move version to a static member 
We should never include version.h or ap_version.h headers directly
on a header since this will trigger a complete rebuild of the
codebase when we commit to the repository. The ap_version.h header
is auto-generated containing information from the current commit.

If we include it in a header, every other file that ends up including
that header (directly or indirectly) will need to be rebuilt. No
ccache's cache beats having to do nothing when the header is just
not included.

version.h contains information that is kept on a struct inside
each vehicle. Rather than using the macros from each vehicle,
the getter should be preferred, which returns an AP_FWVersion
referente.

Andrew Tridgell 9b16836da5 Plane: cope better with more RC trim/min/max values 
when min > trim we need to do RC scaling via rc_config. This loses the
ability to go beyond RC limits, but that can be coped with using
MANUAL_RCMASK

Andrew Tridgell ea1a4bc176 Plane: improve px4_mixer handling of servo trim/min/max 2017-08-01 08:25:32 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell cff692ca48 Plane: implement MANUAL_RCMASK 
this replaces the functionality of the old "with input"
aileron/elevator functions, but in a much more flexible way. It means
that people who want to fly in MANAUL mode will have the ability to
have full control of trims and mixing using transmitter mixers if they
need that functionality
 2017-08-01 08:25:32 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell fedd2c558c Plane: added AETR log message 
this makes debugging mixers much easier

Andrew Tridgell 5d91e29cea Plane: fixed px4_mixer for new function based mixing 
this fixes the OVERRIDE_CHAN functionality to work correctly with the
new function based mixing code

It isn't a perfect match for ArduPilot mixing, but it is very close
for the key control surfaces, including mixed surfaces
 2017-08-01 08:25:32 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 0266168e69 Plane: removed old elevon and vtail mixers

 2017-08-01 08:25:32 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 178e7eca54 Plane: always setup target airspeed 
this sets up a target airspeed even when flying without an airspeed
sensor. This is needed for quadplanes without airspeed sensors where
we use synthetic airspeed during the transition in TECS
 2017-07-31 09:55:44 -07:00
Andrew Tridgell 909f109b3f Plane: don't start a transition while disarmed

Andrew Tridgell 8e3f8f47c8 Plane: tilt motors fast in final stages of quadplane transition 
when transition of tilt quadplane has reached the stage where the tilted
motors are used solely for fwd thrust and rear motors are off we should
move the tilt to full forward rapidly
 2017-04-19 09:08:14 +10:00
Tom Pittenger 5b47927937 Plane: pre-launch flaps incorrectly always disabled 
Pre-launch flaps are always disabled by checking current state against zero (which it always will be) instead of the param which is what it was supposed to be checking.

Andrew Tridgell 664e41cec6 Plane: bring in demanded climb rate over 1 second 
when we engage the Z controller in quadplane we bring in the climb
rate slowly to prevent a sudden change in motor demand

Andrew Tridgell af97a3974b Plane: initialise target height correctly on quadplane transition 
this fixes a bug where a plane in QSTABILIZE would drop suddenly if
switched to FBWA when the target altitude had not been initialised
 2017-03-22 21:34:40 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell bb158a437e Plane: handle bad Q_FRAME_CLASS 
default to quad with a warning. This prevents users getting stuck
without being able to set Q_ENABLE=1

thanks to Leonard for noticing
 2017-03-18 22:10:20 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell e3a8d477f5 Plane: improve tiltrotor transition strategy 
avoid running forward motors at high throttle when transitioning to a
VTOL mode
 2017-03-14 14:42:20 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 3f7e7d456f Plane: in fixed wing mode slave quadplane attitude rate controller 
For quadplanes this uses the attitude controller from fixed wing
when using the multicopter controller to assist fixed wing
flight. This prevents a rate mismatch between the two controller
leading to oscillation
 2017-03-14 14:42:20 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 2db8589f49 Plane: smarter Z controller initialisation for quadplanes 
this is more generic than the previous one used only for the full
position controller
 2017-03-14 14:42:20 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell dd4f56dd98 Plane: added PIQ messages for quadplane PIDs 
keep them separate from fixed wing PIDs, so we can watch the
interaction between the PIDs in transitions
 2017-03-14 14:42:20 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 0e175179a6 Plane: log home and origin on logging start 2017-03-14 10:51:15 +11:00

Randy Mackay c0f155fd27 Plane: use only downward facing rangefinder 2017-02-27 15:18:25 +09:00
Andrew Tridgell 4ff5bf5af5 Plane: zero integrators and set throttle mix 
this zeros fixed wing integrators during TRANSITION_AIRSPEED_WAIT and
uses a zero throttle mix during TRANSITION_TIMER. This should allow
the fixed wing controller more time to adapt to forward flight
 2017-02-26 09:20:51 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell c061d5615b Plane: added manual input mask for tailsitter prop-hang 
This adds new parameters Q_TAILSIT_MASK and Q_TAILSIT_MASKCH. These
parameters allow a user to use the tailsitter capabilities of a 3D
plane to teach themselves to prop-hang.

It works by allowing the user to setup a switch on their transmitter
to enable manual pass-thru of a set of the input channels to outputs
when in tailsitter hover. The user can then use that switch to allow
learning of hover control in a 3D plane one channel (or two channels)
at a time.
 2017-02-26 09:20:13 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 3bb25eb194 Plane: added Q_TAILSIT_INPUT 
this allows the user to control tailsitters either in body frame (like
a plane) or in earth frame (like a multicopter). This is useful for
people wanting to learn to fly prop-hang on 3D planes
 2017-02-26 09:20:13 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell ea5186340b Plane: added Q_TILT_RATE_UP and Q_TILT_RATE_DN as separate parameters 
allow control of tilt rate separately for UP and DOWN

always allow at least 90 degrees/second for switching to MANUAL
 2017-02-25 17:53:26 +11:00
Tom Pittenger 4ccd59f394 Plane: allow exiting loiter_to_alt in cases where you get stuck 
- check for scenarios where updrafts can keep you from loitering down indefinitely.
 2017-02-23 05:15:49 -08:00

Andrew Tridgell b3380ecfa7 Plane: support twin-engine planes 
with differential thrust for yaw
 2017-02-18 17:26:43 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell e8b11924f8 Plane: split out the tailsitter transition complete code 
use both roll and pitch to trigger completion of transition. This
copes with situations where the plane has managed to get itself rolled
over far enough that it can't recover into hover
 2017-02-18 17:26:43 +11:00

Michael du Breuil 29b16dbafd Plane: Refactor to request relative altitudes from AHRS 
Removes the need for plane to do the math for finding the relative height.

Also caches the value at the same time we update current_loc, which is a
non behaviour change as that was the only time you could see a change in
the relative height propegate through the system anyways

Andrew Tridgell 07cedd8a66 Plane: prevent stability shutdown in transition 
this prevents the vertical motors from shutting down while
transitioning if the desired throttle was too low at the start of the
transition
 2017-01-25 19:01:15 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 0d4405106f Plane: removed forcing of trim for motors in quadplane 
this caused problems with tricopter tail servos
