Andrew Tridgell 56591e920d autotest: lower GPS delay for ArduCopter to 400ms 2013-01-14 18:04:31 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell da90dfa454 autotest: cope with existing auto mode via mode change 2013-01-14 18:03:51 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell a8b9e5cf5b autotest: disable wind drag
this is causing some crazy results in stabilize mode. Disable it until
we sort it out

Randy Mackay 70736362c6 AutoTest: update parameter names that have changed in 2.9
THR_FAILSAFE was combined with FS_THR_ENABLE
APPROACH_ALT was renamed to RTL_ALT_FINAL

Pat Hickey c00453eb7b Merge pull request #12 from julianoes/ppm_encoder_small_fix
ArduPPM: small bugfix, small speed-up proposed by John Arne
2013-01-13 21:39:40 -08:00
Andrew Tridgell bd9c61562f HAL_PX4: added -d command line option to app
allows control of serial device
2013-01-14 16:21:27 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 64a8a8e4c9 HAL_PX4: fixed using mavlink on the console
this disables the ONLCR termios flag, which was injecting extra
carriage returns in the output
2013-01-14 16:21:27 +11:00
Randy Mackay 8bbc93bb04 Copter: added CH7 switch to enabling/disable the sonar in flight
This indirectly switches surface tracking on/off which is useful to
avoid tracking the tops of uneven objects when far above the ground

Randy Mackay df2137ed72 Copter: constrain loiter so that it never commands more than 45 degrees of lean in lat or lon directions 2013-01-14 13:34:19 +09:00
Randy Mackay fef7569dee Copter: added experimental LOITER_REPOSITIONING #define to config.h
APM_Config.h should be used to overriding the standard parameters but
they still require a definition in config.h or they will be undefined
when built by the mission planner.

Randy Mackay 76f032160c Copter: relax altitude check in verify_takeoff
Previously we checked if the alt > target_alt but because there is
little to no overshoot with the new accel based alt controller this
check was failing for some users.

Andrew Tridgell 4c4b6afaff HAL_AVR_SITL: fixed log dump
the sockets need to default blocking, and only be non-blocking per
call

fixes issue #9

Randy Mackay c447b4b79b ArduCopter: move setting of land's yaw mode to the do_land function 2013-01-13 20:01:06 +11:00
Randy Mackay 08dc730d40 ArduCopter: bug fix to LAND flight mode not actually landing if initiated from failsafe
An hidden bit of failsafe functionality in the set_mode function was
switching the throttle mode back to THROTTLE_AUTO instead of
THROTTLE_LAND
2013-01-13 20:01:03 +11:00
Randy Mackay 175f69a64f ArduCopter: smooth throttle when switching from manual throttle to alt hold
new set_accel_throttle_I_from_pilot_throttle function copies the
difference between the pilot's throttle and hover throttle to the
accelerometer based throttle controller's I term.
2013-01-13 20:00:59 +11:00
Randy Mackay 9ad6f711f8 ArduCopter: replace FS_THR_RTL_MIN_DISTANCE with wp_radius
This effectively means that an RTL kicked off by a failsafe will
immediately switch to LAND mode only if within 2 meters.  Previously the
radius was much wider (15m).

Andrew Tridgell b0c710b67f Copter: move read_AHRS() before run_rate_controllers()

rmackay9 f25f1cb3bf ArduCopter: changed alt hold to use the sonar if enabled and healthy 2013-01-13 19:56:19 +11:00
Randy Mackay 109b1069d8 AP_InertialNav: added constraint to how large local accelerometer offset corrections can become 2013-01-13 19:55:09 +11:00
rmackay9 21b6c78d12 ArduCopter: added get_throttle_althold_with_slew to allow slower altitude target changes
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.
