Jason Short ce2a608706 Dataflash Logs : Fixed block erase on APM2
Byte order for 512 vs 528 was reversed.
2012-08-15 21:04:24 -07:00
Andrew Tridgell 034fb5b194 APM: fixed hil build 2012-08-16 12:53:37 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell d27e51f20a APM: allow telemetry send during parameter and waypoint fetch
this slows down telemetry by a factor of 4 during parameter or
waypoint transmit. That ensures that mode changes and gps position are
still updated during a long parameter fetch
2012-08-16 10:50:12 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell ed064b2506 MAVLink: enable fetching of single parameters
this makes it possible for the GCS to fetch a single parameter by
name, which is useful for parameters that change in flight
2012-08-16 10:14:46 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 73dcbc24c3 Quaternion: we no longer support acceleration in the GPS driver
remove the linear acceleration compensation code
2012-08-15 20:07:53 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 2d47bd0386 GPS: support getting raw velocity values from a UBlox
this may give better velocity numbers than the value from COG
2012-08-15 20:06:35 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell c960db7af5 APM: allow for separate calibration of airspeed/barometer
this is useful just before takeoff, to account for temperature changes
2012-08-15 19:49:09 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell ad73c229ab APM: added LAND_FLARE_ALT and LAND_FLARE_SEC
these allow you to configure the altitude and time before touchdown to
flare the plane and lock the heading. Useful on larger planes.

Andrew Tridgell 1252ddfe0c APM: rename RDRSTEER to WHEELSTEER
thanks to Jon for the suggestion
2012-08-15 16:28:59 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell ffbd229841 APM: use AHRS position for geo-fence
this allows it to take account of dead-reckoning
2012-08-15 14:31:10 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell a6327e254c SITL: use rudder steering in APM autotest 2012-08-15 12:53:05 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell df3c8a5bc0 APM: when land_complete is true, use land_pitch
this gives a flare on final landing
2012-08-15 12:39:35 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 2d7fcbd14b APM: reload airspeed and throttle after landing
this allows for restarting a mission after landing with reasonable
airspeed values
2012-08-15 12:39:35 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 47be6d8ad1 AP_Airspeed: remove airspeed filter and run at 10Hz
this saves on the filter memory, and gives just as good a result
2012-08-15 12:39:35 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell a4b1b9f0a4 AP_AnalogSource: make read_average() return a float
this allows it to take advantage of better than 1 bit resolution by
averaging
2012-08-15 12:39:35 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell e26e8b3b67 APM: added RDRSTEER_ PID for steering on ground
this allows for rolling takeoff with steering, and use of rudder in
landing
2012-08-15 12:39:35 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 52064772ee APM: report speed changes via MAVLink 2012-08-15 12:39:35 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 817017658d APM: implement FENCE_ACTION_REPORT
when FENCE_ACTION is set to FENCE_ACTION_REPORT a fence breach is
reported, but the flight mode is not changed
2012-08-15 12:39:35 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 299711f4a9 MAVLink: added FENCE_ACTION_REPORT 2012-08-15 12:39:35 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 9b4b7997b6 AHRS: added ahrs.yaw_initialised()
this allows the high level code to know if the AHRS driver has a
reliable yaw estimate
2012-08-15 12:39:34 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 533aab4f66 SITL: added a test script for starting in Kingaroy
we use this for OBC testing
2012-08-15 12:39:34 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 8cb55eb75a APM: keep the time of the last heartbeat message
this will be used for failsafe processing
2012-08-15 12:39:34 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 0584017aff APM: expose change_command() and geofence_breached() to libraries
this makes a failsafe library easier
2012-08-15 12:39:34 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell ff6301fb46 APM: show waypoint number in jump message 2012-08-15 12:39:34 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 92bdc23ab6 APM: minor formatting fix 2012-08-15 12:39:34 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell b6b12532da SITL: make it easier to start ArduPlane SITL at any location
this generates a jsbsim startup XML file from a template
2012-08-15 12:39:34 +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
2012-08-15 12:39:34 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 5631b90222 APM: interpret zero lat/lng as being current location
this makes it easy to have a "loiter in current position" mission
element
2012-08-15 12:39:34 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 93f1d5645b APM: fixed LOITER_TIME and LOITER_TURNS
These now follow the mavlink spec. Loiter time is in seconds, and
loiter turns is now 32 bit angle, so can handle larger numbers of
turns.

Jason Short cdd2093a4c ACM: Switched to filtered_loc for distance calcs 2012-08-14 14:11:52 -07:00
Jason Short a4bc5950cf ACM: Added a filtered version of Location for GPS lag.
I did this because when you are close to a WP the Yaw angle can go a bit wacky as the location jumps around. The filtered loc is only used in the wp_distance calculation now.

rmackay9 2a83f1eef2 ArduCopter: remove RTL_LAND parameter as it's been deprecated in favour of APPROACH_ALT.
Updated comments on ALT_HOLD_RTL and APPROACH_ALT to make it a little easier to understand.
2012-08-14 12:14:35 +09:00
rmackay9 6603e7724d AutoTest: set RTL's APPROACH_ALT to zero to force the copter to land instead of hanging out at 2m and causing the auto test to time out 2012-08-14 12:03:32 +09:00
rmackay9 c574393995 AutoTest: update failsafe timeout to 180 to give it more time to pass. 2012-08-14 11:25:10 +09:00

rmackay9 cf943255a5 AP_RC_Channel: deleted this library as nobody seems to be using it.
Everyone is using RC_Channel instead which includes parameters.

rmackay9 3482f05b48 APM_RC: rename example sketch directories for APM2 so they can be opened easily from arduino ide 2012-08-13 11:50:53 +09:00
Andrew Tridgell 48e275e22d AHRS: avoid a compiler bug in quaternion code
Having _wind in the AP_AHRS class causes a register allocation error
when building the Quaternion code with some versions of avr-gcc. Quite
bizarre.
