Andrew Tridgell 367947fd33 HWSTATUS: if we don't know the voltage, report it as zero
this will tell us if board_voltage() is really working

Andrew Tridgell 511f65e2ef APM: fixed reset of control switch when short_fs_action is disabled
When FS_SHORT_ACTN is 0, we should not re-read the control switch
unless we changed mode on the initial short fs action

Andrew Tridgell 0248b48d30 allow MAG_ENABLE to be changed in flight
this disables the compass in DCM if MAG_ENABLE is changed in
flight. Without this we would use a fixed yaw once the compass is
disabled

This also makes sure we don't pass the compass to DCM till we have
done a read. This ensures we have a good compass fix for the initial
DCM heading

Andrew Tridgell 690dc9052a GCS: force scalar type in copy_name()

Andrew Tridgell 718a5b70e3 AP_Param: fixed saving of sensor calibration
this fixes the saving of the accel and gyro calibration to EEPROM,
which was initially broken by the AP_Param conversion

Andrew Tridgell 78babd37fa APM: use set_and_save_ifchanged() for GCS stream rates
this avoids a lot of EEPROM scan operations when the groundstation
updates the stream rates

Andrew Tridgell c14097ffa1 APM: changed hold_course for landing to be based on yaw_sensor
when we are in the final stages of a landing (less than 2 seconds from
landing waypoint, or less than 3m above landing altitude) we switch
the navigation to use a fixed course. The code previously used the
crosstrack_bearing for this, but this can lead to a large nav_roll in
this final stage of the approach, which can put a wing into the
runway. In autotest we were seeing a nav_roll value of -45 degrees as
we crossed the transition point for the landing, which often led to a
crash.

This changes the code to use the current yaw_sensor value instead,
which is much less likely to lead to large rolls in the final landing
stages.

Andrew Tridgell c662140a2b APM: report the nav_bearing as hold_course when enabled
this gives a more accurate view of the navigation code, as when
hold_course is not -1 it overrides nav_bearing
2012-02-15 08:50:45 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 330ff5dc8b APM: added some comments related to hold_course
hold_course is either -1 (for disabled) or a course to hold for
takeoff/landing. This makes the code a bit clearer.

It also resets hold_course in all non-auto modes, to ensure it isn't
used

Andrew Tridgell 11835508a7 when setting airspeed and groundspeed in a mission, don't save to EEPROM
If you include airspeed, throttle or groundspeed changes in a mission
then those should not be saved to EEPROM, as otherwise if you restart
and re-fly the mission you will be starting with different parameters
to the ones you used for the first flight.

This is particularly important for setting the target airspeed when
coming in for a landing. You typically set a low target, but if you
fly again the next day I think it would be a real surprise to find
that your loiter airspeed has then changed to the value from the
landing part of your last mission.

This one can be argued either way, but I think that not saving these
changes is the more conservative choice, and better fits the
'principal of least surprise'

Andrew Tridgell 8d1729b3ba Mavlink: report the corrected pitch via MAVLink
this subtracts the TRIM_PITCH_CD from the pitch reported via
MAVLink. That gives a better indication of the true pitch in the tlog

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.

Sandro Benigno 3200781f56 Battery monitor type 3 cannot calculate battery remaining properly, due it uses only voltage reading. This path set battery_remaining to a value out-of-band for that type of monitoring. It informs to external devices to not show that info. 2012-02-11 21:01:13 -02:00
Andrew Tridgell 1a861b3de5 allow for lower serial baud rates
not many people will use less than 9600 baud, except for those wanting
to test extreme range radios, which is what I'm trying to do :-)
