Andrew Tridgell 69c29d35ce ACM: change DCM loop to 100Hz
On my APM2 quad this seems to give better results
2012-03-10 10:34:31 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 045b49c4c4 DCM: removed update_DCM_fast
this combines the functionality of the 'fast' DCM with the normal one,
and also speeds up both the yaw drift correction and the matrix update
code

Andrew Tridgell f70dfe440d Quaternion: fix the gyro bias in centripetal and remove smoothing
the centripetal code needs to take account of the current gyro
bias.

It turned out that the accel and gyro smoothing was causing
significant control lag, and we're better off just letting the
quaternion code handle it via its own smoothing parameters

Andrew Tridgell 7256652de5 Quaternion: use GPS to correct for linear acceleration

2012-03-10 10:34:30 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell c7ef72cf28 Quaternion: don't update if we have a very long deltat
