Andrew Tridgell 1fecd135ef ACM: use compass.accumulate() in ArduCopter
this gives us a much less noisy magnetometer

Andrew Tridgell a71cee4579 APM: accumulate mag readings during spare cycles in ArduPlane
With this change we average over 100 mag readings per compass.read()
call, which means we are reading the compass at over 1kHz instead of
10Hz. The noise reduction is huge.

rmackay9 af2502c739 ArduCopter: upgraded firmware version to 2.7.3 2012-09-02 12:58:16 +09:00
rmackay9 3e6966c33d ArduCopter: fixes to allow AP_Mount to work on APM1 with original default channels and fix to reenable support for 3-axis gimbals on APM2.
Channels 5 to 11 changed to RC_Channel_aux.
Removed channel 9 because APM_RC doesn't support it in any case.
Updated EEPROM format version to 119 because of the change to RC_Channel_aux and because k_param_rc_11 moved to be after k_param_rc_10.

Pat Hickey 0cef8ea12d APM_RC_APM1.cpp: Bugfix on mapping of SetFastOutputChannels to ICR reg
* Previously had the ICR register for ch1/2/9 (on timer5) swapped with
  ch3/4/10 (on timer1).
* This bug probably didn't make a difference in operation since
  SetFastOutputChannels is typically only used for copters, where at
  least CH1,2,3,4 would be set to fast all at once.

Andrew Tridgell 7ab7770c3d APM: added the ability to forcibly crash the plane on OBC failsafe breach
this allows a user to setup the OBC failsafe system to forcibly crash
the plane (surfaces at limits, zero throttle) when the failsafe system
triggers. This is to allow APM to be used in the Outback Challenge. In
the OBC an external failsafe board also does this using the heartbeat
control pin, so this is an extra safety mechanism.

To prevent users accidentially triggering a crash, this code only
activates if FS_TERM_ACTION is set to to the magic value 42.

Andrew Tridgell 3f54b83238 APM: added ALT_CTRL_ALG parameter
this allows you to select different altitude control algorithms. The
current choices are for the default (automatic based on if airspeed is
available), or to force a non-airspeed algorithm

The idea is to make it possible to use airspeed for some things (like
wind speed, speed scaling) but not for alt control

Andrew Tridgell fc942b2ff9 APM: removed reset_I() and instead auto-reset integrator in PID library
this prevents us resetting key integrators on waypoint change, while
still preventing old integrators being used when a PID starts to be
used again

Andrew Tridgell 93cde71180 autotest: removed the --wind options

Andrew Tridgell ac2ad44c3c APM: cleanup throttle suppression code and don't use airspeed to unsupress
this removes the throttle suppression when any of the conditions are
met once, as otherwise flying slow below 10m could zero the throttle.

It also removes the use of airspeed for disabling throttle
supression. Otherwise a strong gust of wind can cause ArduPlane to
try to takeoff!

Andrew Tridgell aaa4e64238 SITL: zero wind for first 15s

rmackay9 6f236f0c3b ArduCopter: increase SPI bus speed to 2Mhz after IMU initialisation has completed (MPU6000 accepts maximum of 1Mhz for some registers but up to 20Mhz for main sensor and interrupt registers) 2012-08-28 17:29:48 +09:00
