- libraries/AP_Common/AP_Common.h: Use bit 2 of Location.options to store
loiter direction
- ArduPlane/defines.h: New bitmask MASK_OPTIONS_LOITER_DIRECTION for struct
Location bit 2
- ArduPlane/ArduPlane.pde: New variable loiter_direction
- ArduPlane/GCS_Mavlink.pde: For mavlink loiter-commands use sign of param3 to
detemine direction. Set Location.option flag accordingly
- ArduPlane/commands.pde: Make sure loiter-directions get saved into EEPROM
correctly
- ArduPlane/commands_logic.pde: Set loiter_direction on all loiter-actions
as well as RTL/instant loiter
- ArduPlane/navigation.pde: Yield loiter_direction in update_loiter
this mode gives manual control when the roll or pitch is within the
set limits (the same limits as FBW mode), and prevents the pilot from
flying beyond those limits, essentially a "attitude limited manual"
mode
this allows you to select different altitude control algorithms. The
current choices are for the default (automatic based on if airspeed is
available), or to force a non-airspeed algorithm
The idea is to make it possible to use airspeed for some things (like
wind speed, speed scaling) but not for alt control
Fixes compatibility for APM2. Also a significant update to the battery monitoring code: We previously had monitoring modes for individual cell voltages for 3 and 4 cell lipos. These have been removed as they were never really supported (the cell voltages were computed but were not reported or recorded anywhere). Also, some clean-up/prep work was done for supporting monitoring 2 separate battery packs. The CLI battery and current monitoring tests were consolidated into 1 test.
With these changes the logging system will allow overwriting of logs with no loss of functionality. I have tested (successfully) logging with the Dataflash being filled and overwriting previous files. I have also tested with a single long file that partially overwrites itself.
this moves the mavlink send logic into GCS_Mavlink.pde, and also
ensures we only ever send parameters and waypoints when there is
sufficient space in the serial send buffer
This simplifies code sharing between ArduCopter and Arduplane at the expense of 48bytes.
Moved CH_x defines out of the defines.h file and into the library where they belong
This reverts commit a65a2dda2c1bfa95437880227a3abddc95b329f5.
I am reverting this not for any sane reason, but because my 3 APM
boards now lock up on any I2C operation, and I don't know why. I can't
see how this change could have caused it, but I don't want to take the
chance.
