Andrew Tridgell 116ed39e77 APM: prepare for 2.34 2012-05-14 14:29:59 +10:00
Michael Oborne 922338e982 AP - fix attitude level hil mavlink 1.0 issue 2012-05-06 11:05:35 +08:00
Andrew Tridgell 78d273fa34 Telemetry: make it possible to use UART2 on APM2 
building with TELEMETRY_UART2=ENABLED allows you to use the solder
bridge on the APM2 to enable telemetry on UART2. This allows both USB
telemetry and a radio at the same time.

Andrew Tridgell 1017b0f6a3 APM-nav: set NAV I value defaults to 0.1 
a small I value is good on most planes, so I think this is a better
default than 0. Thanks to Chris for asking about this.

Andrew Tridgell b38d8c526f MAVLink: make parameter send use adaptive stream rate 
this makes it possible to fetch parameters with very low air data
rates

Andrew Tridgell 222009002e MAVLink: allow for find grained stream rate control 
streams can now be requested at any multiple of 20ms. So if you ask
for a stream at 7Hz then you will get it at close to 7Hz.

Andrew Tridgell 1e0a2fb0be MAVLink: don't waste 100 bytes of bandwidth sending 1 byte of information 
the GPS_STATUS message is a massive waste of bandwidth, but it is the
only message that tells us the number of visible satellites. So only
send it if that information changes.

This makes MAVLink work better at low baud rates

Andrew Tridgell e9773ea09c APM: use set_blocking_writes(false) when we have done ground start 2012-03-30 17:46:20 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 36e741b078 MAVLink: raise the serial transmit buffer size to 256 bytes 
the 128 byte serial transmit buffer was causing significant problems
with queueing of mavlink messages. With 256 bytes we can fit a lot
more messages out in each pass of the code, which makes telemetry more
efficient

As we discussed on the dev call, we now have enough free ram for this
to be worthwhile

Andrew Tridgell 03800ec5f4 APM: Added MANUAL_LEVEL option 
when MANUAL_LEVEL is set to 1, we don't do accelerometer levelling at
startup, and instead used the values saved in the EEPROM. This makes
it easier to do levelling on the bench, or once for a series of
flights for the day

Andrew Tridgell 1e47ab26f2 AP_Declination: disable library when AUTOMATIC_DECLINATION is not ENABLED 
unfortunately this library was causing avrdude to fail to load the hex

Andrew Tridgell 3fe5b3151b allow MAG_ENABLE to be changed in flight 
this disables the compass in DCM if MAG_ENABLE is changed in
flight. Without this we would use a fixed yaw once the compass is
disabled

This also makes sure we don't pass the compass to DCM till we have
done a read. This ensures we have a good compass fix for the initial
DCM heading

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.
 2012-02-15 08:50:45 +11:00
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
 2012-02-15 08:50:45 +11:00
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
 2012-02-15 08:50:45 +11:00
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'

Doug Weibel 2ea9db84e0 Update battery monitoring code for ArduCopter 
Fixes compatibility for APM2.  Also a significant update to the battery monitoring code:  We previously had monitoring modes for individual cell voltages for 3 and 4 cell lipos.  These have been removed as they were never really supported (the cell voltages were computed but were not reported or recorded anywhere).  Also, some clean-up/prep work was done for supporting monitoring 2 separate battery packs.  The CLI battery and current monitoring tests were consolidated into 1 test.

Doug Weibel e109992c12 Add a CLI setup action to reset the magnetometer offsets 
Since the magnetometer offsets are not available through the MAVLink parameter interface (since they are an AP_Var vector) this little feature allows them to be reset from the CLI.  Useful if you somehow get bad offsets or if you change magnetometer.  If you have a bad set of large offset values I have seen issues with the nulling algorithm have trouble converging to the proper values.  I have never seen it have trouble converging from 0/0/0, so this could be a useful feature from time to time.
