- move functions restart_landing_sequence() and jump_to_landing_sequence() to AP_Landing
- NOTE: jump_to function can not set mode, so it is now done externally in vehicle

Further to refactor of RC_Channel class which included
adding get_xx set_xx methods, change reads and writes to the public members
to calls to get and set functionsss
old public member(int16_t) get function -> int16_t set function (int16_t)
(expression where c is an object of type RC_Channel)
c.radio_in c.get_radio_in() c.set_radio_in(v)
c.control_in c.get_control_in() c.set_control_in(v)
c.servo_out c.get_servo_out() c.set_servo_out(v)
c.pwm_out c.get_pwm_out() // use existing
c.radio_out c.get_radio_out() c.set_radio_out(v)
c.radio_max c.get_radio_max() c.set_radio_max(v)
c.radio_min c.get_radio_min() c.set_radio_min(v)
c.radio_trim c.get_radio_trim() c.set_radio_trim(v);
c.min_max_configured() // return true if min and max are configured
Because data members of RC_Channels are now private and so cannot be written directly
some overloads are provided in the Plane classes to provide the old functionality
new overload Plane::stick_mix_channel(RC_Channel *channel)
which forwards to the previously existing
void stick_mix_channel(RC_Channel *channel, int16_t &servo_out);
new overload Plane::channel_output_mixer(Rc_Channel* , RC_Channel*)const
which forwards to
(uint8_t mixing_type, int16_t & chan1, int16_t & chan2)const;
Rename functions
RC_Channel_aux::set_radio_trim(Aux_servo_function_t function)
to RC_Channel_aux::set_trim_to_radio_in_for(Aux_servo_function_t function)
RC_Channel_aux::set_servo_out(Aux_servo_function_t function, int16_t value)
to RC_Channel_aux::set_servo_out_for(Aux_servo_function_t function, int16_t value)
Rationale:
RC_Channel is a complicated class, which combines
several functionalities dealing with stick inputs
in pwm and logical units, logical and actual actuator
outputs, unit conversion etc, etc
The intent of this PR is to clarify existing use of
the class. At the basic level it should now be possible
to grep all places where private variable is set by
searching for the set_xx function.
(The wider purpose is to provide a more generic and
logically simpler method of output mixing. This is a small step)
This has no side effects, but since all implementations were basically
the same, move the implementation to GCS_Common and the only part that
adjusts the rate based on which which stream to each individual
GCS_MAVLINK implementation.
Having the version macro in the config.h and consequently in the main
vehicle header means that whenever the version changes we need to
compiler the whole vehicle again. This would not be so bad if we weren't
also appending the git hash in the version. In this case, whenever we
commit to the repository we would need to recompile everything.
Move to a separate header that is include only by its users. Then
instead of compiling everything we will compile just a few files.
Ran into a bug on our physical plane where failsafe.last_valid_rc_ms was not recognizing that the transmitter had failed. This is likely due to how the standard failsafe works in receiving lower-than-possible throttle values. So in order to account for this, I added a new variable to the failsafe, AFS_last_valid_rc_ms, and I update it only if the ch3_failsafe (the throttle failsafe) is not on. If the throttle failsafe is on, that means that the plane has indeed lost transmitter input, so the AFS needs to recognize that.
this makes for an easier startup test for a quadplane, allowing a
single MAVLink command to test that all motors are working correctly
in the right sequence
