Robert Lefebvre 2a9f4bbbad TradHeli: Creating new unified roll/pitch rate controller. 2013-07-19 16:16:12 +09:00
Robert Lefebvre 23ea151ca5 TradHeli: Fix Heli rate controller filter rates. 2013-07-19 16:16:10 +09:00
Robert Lefebvre b4863dc997 TradHeli: Change to throttle controller to allow swash plate collective to move, even if disarmed, if we are in Acro or Stab. This is slightly dangerous... as a user could cause a problem if they do not follow the proper usage procedures. If they do not route the ESC through the APM, but instead direct to Rx. And then if they do not Arm, they could take off in Stab mode while disarmed, but then when they switch to Alt_Hold, it will drop the collective to the bottom and they will fall. This can be saved by switching back to Stab. And it requires operation outside of the normal operating procedure. 
This change is being made because most heli users expect to be able to check the swash plate operation before arming and taking off.

Improved surface tracking by using slewed althold controller
Reduced sonar mode filter to just 3 elements to reduce lag but at the possible consequence of allowing sonar noise to creep through for people with margin sonar set-ups.

James Bielman 7374e5d84e ArduCopter: Use 16-bit arithmetic when comparing event tick counters. 
- On the ARM, once the tick counter wrapped, we stopped running events
  because the wraparound case wasn't being handled correctly.  Make
  sure the comparison is 16 bits to prevent this.

Robert Lefebvre 0eb57bf93d ACM: TradHeli 
Fix to make update_throttle_cruise work with stab_throttle scaling.
 2012-12-08 15:12:39 -05:00
rmackay9 9dd978576b ArduCopter: auto yaw changes to allow pilot override of yaw during missions 
Added set_yaw_mode to better control of yaw controller changes and variable initialisation.
Replaced AUTO_YAW mode with separate yaw controllers YAW_LOOK_AT_NEXT_WP, YAW_LOOK_AT_LOCATION, YAW_LOOK_AT_HEADING.
Pilot manual override of yaw causes yaw to change to YAW_HOLD (i.e. manual yaw) until next waypoint is reached.
Added get_yaw_slew function to control how quickly autopilot turns copter
Changed YAW_LOOK_AHEAD to use GPS heading and moved to new get_look_ahead_yaw function in Attitude.pde
Renamed variables: target_bearing->wp_bearing, original_target_bearing->original_wp_bearing.
Removed auto_yaw_tracking and auto_yaw variables and update_auto_yaw function as they are no longer needed.
Simplified MAV_CMD_CONDITION_YAW handling (do_yaw).  We lose ability to control direction of turn and ability to do long panorama shots but it now works between waypoints and save 20bytes.
 2012-12-08 14:23:32 +09:00
rmackay9 99b32a39c4 ArduCopter: InertialNav time constant CH6 tuning changed to only update enabled axis 2012-12-07 13:01:40 +09:00
rmackay9 39d524212f ArduCopter: allow accel based throttle controller to be enabled/disabled with the new THR_ACC_ENABLE parameter.

 2012-12-06 10:31:57 +09:00
rmackay9 a5bb54e36e ArduCopter: RTL clean-up and slightly improved landing sensor 
Consolidated RTL state to be captured by rtl_state variable.
Combined update_RTL_Nav and verify_RTL functions which performed the same function but one was for missions, the other for the RTL flight mode.
Renamed some RTL parameters and global variables to have RTL at the front.
Landing detector now checks accel-throttle's I term and/or a very low throttle value
 2012-12-06 10:31:52 +09:00
rmackay9 072ffec493 ArduCopter: allow INERTIAL_NAV to be enabled separately for horizontal and vertical position 2012-12-06 10:31:41 +09:00

rmackay9 3cbef57c64 ArduCopter: first merge of leonard's accel based altitude controller plus other changes from Randy 
Changes include:
New low-level get_throttle_accel function takes target acceleration and compares vs earth-frame Z accelerometer values to produce output to motors.
Higher level throttle controllers modified to call new get_throttle_accel controller
Throttle_rate_stabilized controller added which maintains a desired climb/descent rate
Throttle_land controller added - descends using normal auto throttle controller to 10m then descends at 50cm/s
Multiple throttle modes added including landing mode
Land flight mode no longer needs GPS
Throttle cruise maintenance moved to update_throttle_cruise function
