L1_dist can become extremely short for slow moving vehicles leading to unnecessarily jerk turns after passing waypoints. This reduces the minimum length along the track that the vehicle will point.
See discussion here:
https://github.com/ArduPilot/ardupilot/issues/7331
we were getting some uninitialised variables. While it only showed up in
AP_SbusOut, it means we can't be sure it won't happen on other objects,
so safest to remove the approach
Thanks to assistance from Lucas, Peter and Francisco
This fixes#6637 where the LIM_BANK can be set such that the vehicle demands a radius at sea level that is much higher then the loiter radius was configured to be. This effectively feels like a fly away and is due to bad parameters usually. If this happens just fall back to the simple EAS2TAS scaling of the radius.
threading bug fix. When a mission wp updates, but the L1 controller had not yet, the data is stale. Example, On Plane when NAV_LAND starts for a moment your xtrack and bearing is most likely bear zero regardless if you have a big turn or not until 10 Hz later when the update() gets called and updates those values with correct values for the new waypoint.
if the top level controller doesn't consider a waypoint complete when
we are passed next_WP then it would keep flying away from the line
segment. This doesn't happen with the current master code, but we want
to ensure it is handled
The problem with using min() and max() is that they conflict with some
C++ headers. Name the macros in uppercase instead. We may go case by
case later converting them to be typesafe.
Changes generated with:
git ls-files '*.cpp' '*.h' -z | xargs -0 sed -i 's/\([^_[:alnum:]]\)max(/\1MAX(/g'
git ls-files '*.cpp' '*.h' -z | xargs -0 sed -i 's/\([^_[:alnum:]]\)min(/\1MIN(/g'
Now variables don't have to be declared with PROGMEM anymore, so remove
them. This was automated with:
git grep -l -z PROGMEM | xargs -0 sed -i 's/ PROGMEM / /g'
git grep -l -z PROGMEM | xargs -0 sed -i 's/PROGMEM//g'
The 2 commands were done so we don't leave behind spurious spaces.
AVR-specific places were not changed.
new param: NAVL1_XTRACK_I
// @Description: Crosstrack error integrator gain. This gain is applied to the crosstrack error to ensure it converges to zero. Set to zero to disable. Smaller values converge slower, higher values will cause crosstrack error oscillation.
fixes https://github.com/diydrones/ardupilot/issues/2650
when param is changed the integrator is set to zero. This makes for easier tuning by seeing it converge to zero on each change.
This commit changes the way libraries headers are included in source files:
- If the header is in the same directory the source belongs to, so the
notation '#include ""' is used with the path relative to the directory
containing the source.
- If the header is outside the directory containing the source, then we use
the notation '#include <>' with the path relative to libraries folder.
Some of the advantages of such approach:
- Only one search path for libraries headers.
- OSs like Windows may have a better lookup time.
When performing a u-turn in AUTO (waypoints are 180deg turn from each other) sometimes the aircraft can't decide to turn left or right and wobbled back and forth a couple times. There was existing code to solve this but it was not executing all the time like when in LOITER mode. Frankly, I don't understand the criteria that was required to make it execute and i suspect there is still a gremlin in that logic but just executing the check all the time makes prevents the wobble behavior.
