More CopterLEDS changes.
...
Merged CopterLEDS and Piezo functions to eliminate pin conflict on APM2. Created new Parameter bit to turn piezo function on and off from MP. Moved GPS and Aux pin assignments to allow commonality between APM1 and 2. Set LED_Mode parameter default to 9 in order to make CopterLEDS completely backwards compatible with old Motor LEDS and Piezo code. Legacy users should see no difference.

ee308ea06c
ArduCopter - increased firmware version to 118. Removed nearly all heli parameters as these are all created by the AP_MotorHeli class now.
...
Note: we cannot move the heli_servos to the AP_MotorHeli class yet because of a small issue in the parameters class.
2012-04-04 22:55:07 +09:00

ArduCopter - add includes for new AP_Motors classes.

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

MAVLink: raise the serial transmit buffer size to 256 bytes
...
the 128 byte serial transmit buffer was causing significant problems
with queueing of mavlink messages. With 256 bytes we can fit a lot
more messages out in each pass of the code, which makes telemetry more
efficient
As we discussed on the dev call, we now have enough free ram for this
to be worthwhile
2012-03-30 17:46:20 +11:00
0bc604f030
ACM: removed FORCE_AUTOMATIC_DECLINATION_UPDATE
...
we now have the EEPROM option COMPASS_AUTODEC instead
2012-03-30 14:25:27 +11:00
51b70e4d36
ArduCopter: Changed implementation of configuration value for automatic declination. There is now a FORCE_AUTOMATIC_DECLINATION_UPDATE that when enabled will update the declination on every GPS 3D fix regardless of whether or not the user saved a value to the EEPROM. By default the declination will only be set by the automatic declination routine if the user has not saved a declination to the EEPROM.
