rmackay9 6a2cca3610 ArduCopter, ArduPlane: rename ap variable in GCS_Mavlink.pde to resolve compiler warning re shadowing of variable 'ap'
Changed ArduPlane to keep function consistent with ArduCopter

Andrew Tridgell 03974fa9db ACM: switch to GPS velocity numbers in GLOBAL_POSITION_INT
these numbers are much more useful than the redundent rotated ground
speed. They tell us exactly what the GPS is giving to AHRS

Pat Hickey 24dcbe1b0e ArduCopter GCS_MAVLink: COMMAND_LONG for arm/disarm motors
Date: Wed, 26 Sep 2012 15:56:43 -0700
Subject: ArduCopter arm/disarm command consensus

    Michael,

    Per our discussion today,

    In a MAVLINK_MSG_ID_COMMAND_LONG
    A MAV_CMD of type MAV_CMD_COMPONENT_ARM_DISARM
    with component id MAV_COMP_ID_SYSTEM_CONTROL = 250,
    uses param index 1 to specify an arm/disarm motors event: 1 to arm,
    0 to disarm

    Thanks for working this out with me. Sorry to get it so completely
    wrong the first time around!

    Best
    Pat

rmackay9 b80a3943aa ArduCopter, ArduPilot: revert mavlink delay callback to be "unsigned long" 2012-08-18 20:34:41 +09:00
rmackay9 221e4ea32a ArduCopter: changed "unsigned long" to "uint32_t" 2012-08-18 19:05:55 +09:00
rmackay9 48b7d26c5d ArduCopter: changed all "int" to "int16_t" and a few "long"s to "int32_t".
Also moved "simple_counter" variable from global scope to the "update_simple_mode" function which is the only place that it's actually used.

Andrew Tridgell 0a7d8a4933 MAVLink: enable fetching of single parameters
this makes it possible for the GCS to fetch a single parameter by
name, which is useful for parameters that change in flight
2012-08-16 10:14:46 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell a7399c405d MAVLink: removed the need for Mavlink_compat.h
we have now fully transitioned to MAVLink 1.0, so we no longer need
the compatibility layer and the old names in the code
2012-08-09 12:22:46 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 16d63978f1 MAVLink: moved mavlink variables back to library
these were moved to the main sketches to allow for compile time
selection of MAVLink 0.9 vs 1.0. We no longer support 0.9, so we can
move it back, which simplifies some test sketches

Andrew Tridgell 1fc8347af3 MAVLink: send time of GPS fix accurately
when we send a GPS_RAW message, set the usec field to the time we got
the fix from the GPS, not the current time. This makes it possible for
aerial photo processing to be more accurate, as the usec field with
more accurately reflect the planes position/time pair

rmackay9 86d2a9ffdb ArduCopter - GCS_Mavlink.pde - changed output to ground station to use new AP_Motor's class motors array inplace of the global "motor_out" array. 2012-04-04 22:52:26 +09:00
Andrew Tridgell 40d7b07789 MAVLink: port the new adaptive flow control to ArduCopter
This allows for arbitrary stream rates, and supports flow control if
you are using a 3DR radio

Andrew Tridgell 1e0a2fb0be MAVLink: don't waste 100 bytes of bandwidth sending 1 byte of information
the GPS_STATUS message is a massive waste of bandwidth, but it is the
only message that tells us the number of visible satellites. So only
send it if that information changes.

This makes MAVLink work better at low baud rates
