The balloon then lifts the glider above the ground. The balloon automatically bursts at a height of SIM_GLD_BLN_BRST meters, or can be cut away early with servo10. The maximum rate of the balloon lift is in SIM_GLD_BLN_RATE, in m/s To perform a takeoff first arm on the ground then use servo set 6 2000 to release the ground hold. Use this to cut away the balloon: servo set 10 2000 For an automatic mission, NAV_ALTITUDE_WAIT should be used to wait for a desired altitude under balloon lift. Then a DO_SET_SERVO with servo 10 and a value of 2000 to cut away the balloon. */ #include "SIM_Glider.h" #if AP_SIM_GLIDER_ENABLED #include #include #include #include extern const AP_HAL::HAL& hal; using namespace SITL;
