Andrew Tridgell 233b033e8c Plane: removed old speed/altitude control algorithms 
Use TECS only. This makes the code a lot simpler and easier to
properly document
 2013-07-22 13:28:11 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 29c854e676 Plane: remove unused function 2013-07-22 12:50:02 +10:00

this makes the logic a bit easier to follow
 2013-07-22 12:50:00 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 608345415b Plane: pass aircraft parameters to attitude controllers 
also cope with rename of airspeed min/max variables

Andrew Tridgell dc024d425a Plane: re-do roll hanging in ACRO mode 
this avoids the euler angle zeros of the previous method by using a
gyro integrator on the roll axis

 2013-07-13 21:45:58 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell b37f79d307 Plane: update for new APM_Control API 2013-07-13 21:45:58 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 113bc20f8a Plane: added a new CRUISE flight mode

this fixes issue #438
 2013-07-13 21:45:58 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell cc57bfcf12 Plane: fixed handling of deadzone in ACRO mode 
RC_Channel norm_input() does not take account of the dead zone
 2013-07-12 17:54:51 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell fc67f51901 Plane: added ACRO_ROLL_RATE and ACRO_PITCH_RATE parameters 
default to 180 degrees/second, which seems reasonable
 2013-07-11 09:10:41 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 608007361b Plane: added initial implementation of ACRO mode 
rate based control with attitude locking

 2013-07-10 14:04:22 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 1355b6d89d Plane: break-up scheduling into smaller pieces 
ensure mavlink sends don't push us over a scheduling boundary
 2013-07-05 18:05:27 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell d30dd7c3f1 Plane: only run TECS when in an auto-throttle mode 
this prevents integrator buildup in user controlled modes
 2013-07-05 14:55:22 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell a5bda3ffef Plane: changed to using a "aircraft parameters" structure 
this structure can be passed to libraries to give them easy access to

launching for X-8 flight
 2013-07-04 16:56:57 +10:00

are met

thanks to Greg Fletcher for suggesting this
 2013-07-01 17:05:13 +10:00

 2013-06-03 16:23:48 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell fb9bf21522 Plane: allow channel mapping of first 4 channels 
this makes it easier to support DSM and SBUS radios
 2013-06-03 16:23:48 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell bb3171ab5f Plane: zero attitude integrators on the ground 2013-06-01 22:29:38 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell cd55ed45e2 Plane: removed the old roll/pitch/yaw PID controllers 
use the new controllers, with auto parameter conversion
 2013-05-31 14:06:56 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell eba7d6da9a Plane: removed the old crash_timer code 
This code is less relevent with the new L1 navigation, and could cause
issues with the pilot not having control after a long dive.

Thanks to Soren for pointing out the issues

See issue #305
 2013-05-28 11:19:28 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 767d9d0eb5 Plane: fixed stick mixing in AUTO modes

 2013-05-27 08:24:35 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell c81421e275 Plane: added MIXING_GAIN parameter

saturate
 2013-05-25 18:28:13 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 6251d0510a Plane: obey pitch trim and throttle pitch feed forward in new controllers 
Pair-Programmed-With: Paul Riseborough <p_riseborough@live.com.au>
 2013-05-05 21:51:09 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 11ad9d5a2d Plane: auto-invert pitch control when upside down 
this helps to recover when flying inverted, for example when in manual
and hitting the lower altitude geofence
 2013-05-05 21:51:09 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 4e2b88f6e6 Plane: added ATT_CONTROLLER option to select attitude controller 
set to 1 for the new APM_Control library
 2013-05-05 21:51:09 +10:00
Paul Riseborough 8c5b603848 Plane: use new APM_Control API 2013-05-05 21:51:08 +10:00

Andrew Tridgell 3d7a4d0e6e Plane: added ELEVON_OUTPUT option 
this is like the vtail mixer, but for elevons
 2013-04-29 12:13:59 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 0b8c2da4df Plane: support 12 output channels on PX4 2013-04-25 20:10:53 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 4f225eff57 Plane: if airspeed enabled, require 5m/s to unsuppress throttle 2013-04-25 20:10:53 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 8f091e70c8 Plane: move elevon variables into a structure 2013-04-15 14:53:56 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 11eb0cfce1 Plane: update for new AP_Navigation controller class 
this switches ArduPlane over to use the L1 navigation controller, via
a generic nav_controller object pointer.

Note that the nav_controller controls all types of navigation now,
including level flight and heading hold. This provides a cleaner
abstraction than the old method of special case navigation handling

Andrew Tridgell e58f49aeaf Plane: copy rudder out in TRAINING mode 
we were doing rudder mixing in training mode, which shouldn't be done
 2013-04-05 19:38:43 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell bd2b9fbe9d Plane: simplify the VTail mixer to be more like a hardware mixer 
this should make it easier to trim the vtail
 2013-04-05 15:47:51 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 406921faf1 Plane: added VTAIL_OUTPUT option 
this allows for software vtail mixing
 2013-04-05 15:22:11 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 683a2919d1 Plane: prevent stick mixing when throttle is below failsafe threshold 
this fixes issue #40
 2013-04-02 10:42:56 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 2506c216dd Plane: added a second type of stick mixing 
this changes STICK_MIXING from a boolean to a tri-state. With
STICK_MIXING=1 it now uses FBW style mixing. With STICK_MIXING=2 it
uses the old style of direct stick mixing.
 2013-04-02 08:52:56 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell e390726bdd Plane: prevent overflow on large PID gains 
this uses get_pid_4500() to prevent overflow of servo_out on large PID gains
 2013-04-01 22:17:04 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell dfb14d760b Plane: added HIL_SERVOS option 
this allows for real servo output in HIL

Andrew Tridgell 0a385cc0ff Plane: added TKOFF_THR_MINACC option 
this is used for triggering auto takeoff with a hand launched plane
 2013-03-09 14:41:04 +11:00
Michael Warren 9697ff5d6d Plane: Added extra parameter to specify at what speed in auto-takeoff throttle should engage 
This adds TKOFF_THR_MINSPD in m/s
 2013-03-09 14:19:48 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell e93888dee9 Plane: make a throttle_cruise of 0 mean always zero throttle 
this can be used for parachute landing missions
