When we are landing a sink_rate < -0.2f means the vehicle is climbing,
which should never happen during an approach for any supported landing
type (slope or deepstall), and on hard impacts with the ground its
common for the vehicle altitude to be projected to low and climb back to
the correct altitude slowly (but at a higher rate). This changes the
check to only consider sinks while on approach as acceptable.
this will reduce confusion when searching for FLIGHT_LAND_* and you get a bunch of takeoff related hits. It will also make more sense when the landing library fully manages the FLIGHT_LAND stage entirely because it will not mange FLIGHT_LAND_ABORT
- fixes bug where a bungee launch is configured but the aircraft gets bumped and triggers the prop to spin up. This will now detect that and "crash' and disable the motor
@Description: X-Axis deceleration threshold to notify the crash detector that there was a possible impact which helps disarm the motor quickly after a crash. This value should be much higher than normal negative x-axis forces during normal flight, check flight log files to determine the average IMU.x values for your aircraft and motor type. Higher value means less sensative (triggers on higher impact). For electric planes that don't vibrate much during fight a value of 25 is good (that's about 2.5G). For petrol/nitro planes you'll want a higher value. Set to 0 to disable the collision detector.
- inhibit crash detection warnings when disabled by param so now it can be completely disabled
- reset is_crashed when disabled by param
- fixed pre-takeoff detection bug by adding in_preLaunch_flight_stage() where we are actually in FLIGHT_NORMAL instead of FLIGHT_TAKEOFF during setup of bungee launches. This now detects if we're in that state
- simplified the use of been_auto_flying to check across all flight stages. before it was excluded to handle hand-launches which can now be detected with in_preLaunch_flight_stage()
- added impact detector timer to clamp is_flying a few seconds after an impact
- logging new impact detector as "STAT.Hit"
The PSTR is already define as a NOP for all supported platforms. It's
only needed for AVR so here we remove all the uses throughout the
codebase.
This was automated with a simple python script so it also converts
places which spans to multiple lines, removing the matching parentheses.
AVR-specific places were not changed.
- previously we only kept track of starting flying while in auto which gets reset when switching in and out of auto and on takeoff/land. Now we keep track of a "global" one that will track the is_flying flag regardless of the flight mode.
- enabled via new param LAND_ABORT_THR default is 0 (disabled)
- Triggered via 95% throttle during landing, a landing abort will take place.
- This copies all takeoff params for right now, we can make this better later if needed
- added mission item command to NAV_LAND which is the abort takeoff altitude. If 0 then use last takeoff if available, else use 30m
- hold heading, just like takeoff, until altitude is reached
- pitch is constrained to takeoff pitch, or else 10deg if not available
- After abort altitude is reached, the normal landing restart happens (DO_LAND_START or decrement mission)
- restart landing by jumping to DO_LAND_START or decrement mission on mode change
This behavior is excessively paranoid about clearing the flag so now it's extra sticky. You can only clear the is_crashed flag when:
- changing modes
- starting to execute a takeoff wp (if mission/index gets reset while still in auto)
- while in takeoff and throttle is suppressed it's held false
behavior that was removed:
- clear flag when starting to execute any nav cmd (reached next wp)
- if while crashed, you "start flying again" (non-sticky)
due to zero-ish vibration in SITL, the is_flying check thinks you're not flying, and this thinks you crashed. This is a SITL specific problem but it brings to light that *if* someone actually had a very low vibration aircraft we don't want to crash them. So, the vibe test has been removed for now. A better test is a variance on the accel
