Paul Riseborough cf04600710 AP_NavEKF: Add public function to limit height control during OF nav 2015-04-24 10:57:56 +09:00
Paul Riseborough 68b225de4d AP_NavEKF: Prevent pre-arm baro drift affecting mag field reset height 2015-04-24 10:57:54 +09:00
Paul Riseborough c2e6fdb56c AP_NavEKF: Reduce effect of noisy baro data on baro height offset estimate
This estimate is used to offset baro data if we need to switch across from range finder data due to sensor failure. The previous filter coefficients gave a 0.5 seconds time constant on the offset which was too susceptible to baro noise.

Paul Riseborough fd7fdc1ad9 AP_NavEKF: Remove unnecessary state resets on arm and disarm
Resetting states unnecessarily creates transients due to presence of bias errors

Paul Riseborough 3e67080002 AP_NavEKF: Use GPS vertical velocity observations to estimate Z accel bias 2015-04-24 10:57:47 +09:00
Paul Riseborough e48171ab11 AP_NavEKF: Improve takeoff with optical flow and range data loss
Range finder and optical flow data can drop-out and be reliable very close to ground. these patches enable the takeoff to be more relaibly detected and constrain optical flow navigation drift in the first part of takeoff.

Niels Joubert a5beef00d1 GPS: Official Swift Binary Protocol GPS Driver v3 for Piksi GPS
DRIVER FEATURES:
- All logic for RTK vs Normal now lives inside Piksi
- Supports observation uplink through telem radio
- Supports full SBP packet logging
- Reports high-rate green blinking to indicate RTK lock.
- Switchable to accept only Float or Integer RTK locks.

THIS REQUIRES PIKSI FIRMWARE v0.14 OR HIGHER
- Uses Piksi's new Pseudo-Absolute-Positioning mode
- Onboard Piksi must have Pseudo-Absolute mode enabled
- Ground Station Piksi must have a surveyed location in settings
- Ground Station Piksi must send its location to Onboard Piksi.

NEXT STEPS REQUIRED:
- EKF needs to take higher accuracy GPS into account
- EKF needs to take GPS RTK height into account
- GCS needs to support sending SBP observation packets
--- MAVProxy patch forthcoming
