Andrew Tridgell aaba4db144 AP_Param: added eeprom_aaparam.c dump utility 2012-02-15 10:41:06 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 2dcb594f4a APM: changed hold_course for landing to be based on yaw_sensor 
when we are in the final stages of a landing (less than 2 seconds from
landing waypoint, or less than 3m above landing altitude) we switch
the navigation to use a fixed course. The code previously used the
crosstrack_bearing for this, but this can lead to a large nav_roll in
this final stage of the approach, which can put a wing into the
runway. In autotest we were seeing a nav_roll value of -45 degrees as
we crossed the transition point for the landing, which often led to a
crash.

This changes the code to use the current yaw_sensor value instead,
which is much less likely to lead to large rolls in the final landing
stages.

Andrew Tridgell c6b6320b43 APM: report the nav_bearing as hold_course when enabled 
this gives a more accurate view of the navigation code, as when
hold_course is not -1 it overrides nav_bearing

Andrew Tridgell 252a2d0c9b APM: added some comments related to hold_course 
hold_course is either -1 (for disabled) or a course to hold for
takeoff/landing. This makes the code a bit clearer.

It also resets hold_course in all non-auto modes, to ensure it isn't
used

Andrew Tridgell a4663c4b20 autotest: increase the rudder gain 
this gives a bit better landing approach and turns in auto

Andrew Tridgell 812b7ae5ae SITL: catch floating point errors 
if we get a FPE then log a message and exit
 2012-02-15 08:50:45 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell c39914e734 DCM: added a SITL_debug() for DCM normalisation errors 
I have seen normalisation errors during simulation runs, but have not
yet tracked down the cause. This log message may help track things
down.
 2012-02-15 08:50:45 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 7355f5613c added SITL_debug() macro 
this can be used to print a message into the logs in the SITL
simulator. This will be used for critical conditions.

Andrew Tridgell c93dedc955 when setting airspeed and groundspeed in a mission, don't save to EEPROM 
If you include airspeed, throttle or groundspeed changes in a mission
then those should not be saved to EEPROM, as otherwise if you restart
and re-fly the mission you will be starting with different parameters
to the ones you used for the first flight.

This is particularly important for setting the target airspeed when
coming in for a landing. You typically set a low target, but if you
fly again the next day I think it would be a real surprise to find
that your loiter airspeed has then changed to the value from the
landing part of your last mission.

This one can be argued either way, but I think that not saving these
changes is the more conservative choice, and better fits the
'principal of least surprise'

this helps the landing a lot

Andrew Tridgell 3907cf81f8 Mavlink: report the corrected pitch via MAVLink 
this subtracts the TRIM_PITCH_CD from the pitch reported via
MAVLink. That gives a better indication of the true pitch in the tlog

this means the 'show' command in the CLI shows the compass offsets now
 2012-02-14 08:34:50 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 8d88dbdf79 added some AP_Param testing of the compass 2012-02-14 08:34:25 +11:00

Andrew Tridgell c6f3f7065c APM: the CLI fits nicely on the 1280 again now 
I find the CLI very useful for testing, so enable it by default on the
1280. Logging is still off by default.

Andrew Tridgell 4ec3857476 GPS: change back to 4Hz for MTK GPS 
this will hopefully fix the NO_GPS problems that have been regularly
happening in recent months. I will watch the logs carefully to see if
the problem recurs

Andrew Tridgell 16a5b5c3ee added AP_Param::show_all()

Andrew Tridgell 781617cae0 token size for first()/next() is now 16 bits 2012-02-13 16:22:52 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell ee2cb32a44 change back to 256 max variables in _var_info[] 
this keeps the header to 24 bits, and allows the token to be 16
bits. If we need more variables we can put them in a nested group.

Andrew Tridgell 50f9d12ad5 go back to 1024 bytes for variables in EEPROM 2012-02-13 16:22:52 +11:00

Andrew Tridgell 6cf7015859 added indexes to group info structures 2012-02-13 16:22:52 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 7621b96a52 AP_Param: added group idx, and change packing of header elements 
adding a idx element to the GroupInfo will make it less likely that a
developer will change the IDs of group elements, and make it easier to
see that these IDs are important for identifying a variable in EEPROM

The header packing has changed to make it 24 bits on all platforms,
which allows us to lower the EEPROM variable max size to 1024 bytes
again
 2012-02-13 16:22:52 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 711cee9dfa fixed support for AP_PARAM_SPARE
