Andrew Tridgell 880404d062 APM: added forwarding of unknown MAVLink types 2012-09-08 10:06:15 +10:00
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.

Pat Hickey b52738662a APM_Config.h for ArduCopter/ArduPlane: better descr of APM2_BETA_HARDWARE 2012-09-05 15:36:57 -07:00
Andrew Tridgell 0be8349678 APM: obey pitch limits in FBWA as well
this means pitch limits are constrained by LIM_PITCH_MIN and
LIM_PITCH_MAX
2012-08-30 20:15:42 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell ae74db15e1 APM: fixed docs for LIM_PITCH_MIN 2012-08-30 14:55:08 +10:00

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
2012-08-28 20:18:24 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 16dd911547 APM: fixed another problem with DO_JUMP
off by one error!

Andrew Tridgell 4945d66c80 APM: check for geofence fence total of 0 2012-08-28 20:18:24 +10:00
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
2012-08-28 20:18:23 +10:00
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 9cf8cc590f APM: added XTRK_USE_WIND parameter
when enabled this will use the wind estimation code to adjust the
navigation bearing, allowing the navigation code to cope with much
higher levels of wind while using a compass

rmackay9 b80a3943aa ArduCopter, ArduPilot: revert mavlink delay callback to be "unsigned long" 2012-08-18 20:34:41 +09:00
rmackay9 ac240dffd3 ArduPlane: more "int" to "int16_t" and added cast to (int) in printf statements.
Also modified dump_log function's last_log_num to be int16_t which matches return type from DataFlash's find_last_log method.
2012-08-18 18:55:14 +09:00
rmackay9 e5d8efdb7e ArduPlane: replaced many "int" with "int16_t", "long" with "int32_t" 2012-08-18 18:26:13 +09:00

Andrew Tridgell 5ebcf425cf 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 0a7d8a4933 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 a1107602e9 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 efee2b1557 APM: added LAND_FLARE_ALT and LAND_FLARE_SEC

2012-08-15 14:31:10 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 20be77ab32 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 b8521ff9ae APM: reload airspeed and throttle after landing
this allows for restarting a mission after landing with reasonable

2012-08-15 12:39:35 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell f4023d1b44 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 4b5d98e65b APM: added RDRSTEER_ PID for steering on ground
this allows for rolling takeoff with steering, and use of rudder in
landing

Andrew Tridgell 93f45f232f 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 98015636d9 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 98d5a49717 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.
2012-08-15 12:39:34 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 35c88dd418 INS: disable INS AP_Param table when not on APM1 hardware
this could cause overwriting of memory with default values

Andrew Tridgell 9d9c7b0455 APM: allow for navigation by dead-reckoning
we now ask AHRS if we have a position estimate, and use that if
available
2012-08-11 12:01:08 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell aa839c3f46 APM: pass airspeed sensor to AHRS 2012-08-11 08:57:44 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 9bdf204e35 APM: support the MISSION_WRITE_PARTIAL_LIST command
this allows missions to be partially updated in flight
2012-08-09 17:13:36 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell a7399c405d MAVLink: removed the need for Mavlink_compat.h
we have now fully transitioned to MAVLink 1.0, so we no longer need
the compatibility layer and the old names in the code
2012-08-09 12:22:46 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 16d63978f1 MAVLink: moved mavlink variables back to library
these were moved to the main sketches to allow for compile time
selection of MAVLink 0.9 vs 1.0. We no longer support 0.9, so we can
move it back, which simplifies some test sketches
2012-08-09 12:06:21 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 4c77cbcd0b APM: Added RST_MISSION_CH option
this allows a pilot to reset the mission using a transmitter
switch. Very useful for repeating a mission during testing
2012-08-09 10:33:16 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 54f97bb9e7 APM: removed THROTTLE_REVERSE option
Better to use RC3_REV
2012-08-09 10:04:44 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 6e46db39a1 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.
