Andrew Tridgell 5f3ffe4839 APM: switch to Randys new IMU rate control method
this drives the speed of the 50Hz loop by the number of samples
accumulated in the IMU. This should give much more consistent timing
in DCM.

Thanks to Randy for introducing this scheme in ArduCopter!

Andrew Tridgell 343f7d2de0 APM: removed DMP support from ArduPlane
Without centripetal correction the DMP code will almost certainly
crash a plane

Andrew Tridgell 6d11940ada AHRS: removed Quaternion build support from APM/ACM/rover 2012-08-22 10:42:21 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 2865434d02 APM: added 'OBC' failsafe module for ArduPlane
this adds FS_* parameters for setting up APM to follow the outback
challenge failsafe rules.

This includes:

 - manual pin
 - heartbeat pin
 - waypoint for heartbeat failure
 - waypoint for GPS failure

Andrew Tridgell e2c8ec2c9e APM: removed THROTTLE_REVERSE option
Better to use RC3_REV

Andrew Tridgell e133900c68 APM: Added STICK_MIXING option
this replaces the compile time option. Disabling during long distance
flights when the transmitter may be out of range is useful.

Andrew Tridgell 2114acddf1 APM: fixed default flap speed
the default of 255 translates to -1 as a AP_Int8, so use zero to mean
no flaps

Andrew Tridgell a823c9ceae APM: removed cli slider and dipswitch options

Amilcar Lucas 50b5d33745 Enable camera triggering by default 2012-08-04 16:32:47 +02:00
Amilcar Lucas 82b82283be ATmega1280 does not have enough memory for mount support so disable AUTO GPS support, to allow mount support to fit.
This should almost have no side effects, because the most users use MTK anyways.
If the user defined a GPS protocol, than we will NOT overwrite it

rmackay9 06e35820e5 ArduPlane: allow MPU6000's DMP to be used for attitude estimation.
Enable by adding this line to APM_Config.h:
#define DMP_ENABLED ENABLED

Andrew Tridgell 6bcfe913f7 APM: added a SCALING_SPEED parameter
this allows users to adjust the base speed used for scaling roll/pitch
PIDs. This can be used to make PIDs work for both airspeed and
non-airspeed control

Andrew Tridgell f6d7d1bc59 APM: changed PID library to do automatic deltat calculation
this fixes a problem with the HDNG2RLL PID, which was using the wrong
time base and prevents similar bugs from happening in the future

Andrew Tridgell 60caaa4b04 MAVLink: remove MAVLink 0.9 protocol support
this simplifies the code a lot. We're not going back to 1.0

Amilcar Lucas 07a18904fc With CLI and MOUNT active, the linker says: region `text' overflowed by 3858 bytes
So disable CLI when MOUNT is active. Sorry I did not detect it before, but the APM_Camera branch worked in a different way.

Andrew Tridgell f43f5900bc 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 8fab91e063 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 168c45ab12 AP_Declination: enabled auto declination by default in APM 2012-03-30 14:25:27 +11:00

Adam M Rivera 2524f9c8df AP_Declination: Added new config value to allow the user to have the declination overwritten on every 3D fix.

Andrew Tridgell 9a06d35772 make 'ENABLE' and 'ENABLED' mean the same things

Andrew Tridgell 35badbb97d 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.

Doug Weibel 6e8ac99ed6 Fix airspeed sensor support for APM2.
Airspeed sensor should be attached to Analog input 0

Doug Weibel 69c7598db2 Update battery monitoring code for ArduPlane
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.

thanks to Chris for the suggestion

Andrew Tridgell e99db6526f APM: added RST_SWITCH_CH parameter
This is useful for switching back to the mode indicated by the control
switch after a failsafe or fence breach. I was just changing modes
each time, but it is far more elegant to have a spring loaded switch
for "I am ready to take control again", rather than continually
changing modes.

Andrew Tridgell b9a88aac32 geofence: added FENCE_TRIGGERED_PIN
this allows for a digital pin to be set high when the geofence
triggers. This pin can be connected to an external failsafe device

Pat Hickey d7f77aec93 ArduCopter & ArduPlane: Added support for apm2beta build via APM2_BETA_HARDWARE define
* This enables the BMA085 driver for compatibility with beta boards.
* The CLI_SLIDER_ENABLED=DISABLED line does not need to be in the makefile.
  config.h takes care of this default.
