Andrew Tridgell 1591d41b33 ACM: make it possible to build ArduCopter with quaternions 2012-03-10 10:34:29 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell bc81d8e6ac ACM: only call the fast loop if the imu has new data
this prevents us spinning waiting for the sensors to gather some data

Jason Short 13e9608fb8 Consolidated Barometer pressure sensing to a single filter based on Randy's new filter class. 2012-03-08 23:13:04 -08:00
Jason Short 43b3e1ccd1 ACM -
Implemented automatic ranging of Alt Hold gains. Works well in simulator and testing.
- alt hold estimation moved to 50 hz
- simple fixed observer calc for smooth and accurate climb rates useful for derivative calcs
- auto-reset of the I term by moving I value into throttle value. This recalcs the gain every 20seconds for battery drainage compensation in long flights.
- remove filtering for Nav_throttle
- added a way to lower the gain on nav_throttle for descents by / climb_rate error by 2 - seems to work OK and keeps copter from dropping like a rock when the Baro drifts quickly lower.
- removed old throttle hold set point code
- made throttle override for alt hold +- 200 vs 250

rmackay9 add3133100 ArduCopter - change sonar to use new mode filter from Filter library 2012-02-26 15:35:14 +09:00
Jason Short 68739f3cc4 Based on Jani's latest logs I've made two tweaks to alt hold.
The first is to remove the filter on the throttle output for alt_hold.

The second was to open up the constraint on climb rate. This is to deal with larger than expected disturbances causing altitude changes.

Andrew Tridgell 6b265c5034 ACM: use a NULL gps pointer in DCM init
current DCM API does need a GPS reference passed in, but it can be
NULL
2012-02-25 15:08:49 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell ce5c7c2c85 ACM: don't pass a gps pointer to DCM
after discussion with Randy, we don't want ArduCopter to fall back to
GPS for yaw when the compass becomes unhealthy. So we shouldn't pass
the gps object to the DCM code at all.

Doug Weibel 2ea9db84e0 Update battery monitoring code for ArduCopter
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.
