The ad-hoc scaling of error growth has been replaced with a consistent method that uses the main nav filters published vertical velocity uncertainty and the terrain gradient assumption.
GPS height has been added as a measurement option along with range finder and baro
Selection of the height measurement source has been moved into a separate function
Each height source is assigned its own measurement noise
If GPS or baro alt is not able to be used, it reverts to baro
When baro is not being used, an offset is continually calculated which enables a switch to baro without a height step.
The copter method was being used for plane and the plane method was not being run due to the change in flight status not being detected.
The plane reset method did not trigger if the EKF had already dragged the velocity states along with the GPS or could align to an incorrect heading.
The method has been reworked so that it resets to the GPS course, but only if there are inconsistent angles and large innovations.
To stop a failed magnetometer causing a loss of yaw reference later in flight, if all available sensors have been tried in flight and timed out, then no further magnetoemter data will be used
When there is already a driver registered on an i2c bus, the I2C_SLAVE ioctl
returns an error.
When it happens, it is better to display a warning and try to force the address.
It is especially useful on the bebop when killing the regular autopilot that uses
iio drivers to access the imu because else we would need to manually unbind the
driver in an init procedure.
I have added a warning because this error can also be resulting of another cause.
If the error is not EBUSY, then panic
If the I2C_SLAVE_FORCE ioctl fails then we panic because one of the i2c devices
won't be working properly.
when a GCS sends a command to a system ID that isn't our system ID,
the GCS may use a non-advertised component ID such as
MAV_COMP_ID_SYSTEM_CONTROL. Those packets should be fowarded to the
target system even though the target system has not specifically
advertised that target sysid/compid tuple.
