this gives more control over throttle for petrol helis. H_RSC_POWER_NEGC allows for a asymmetric V-curve, which allows for less power being put into the head when landing or when sitting on the ground. That can lead to significantly less vibration and chance of ground oscillation. A heli not being flown with aerobatics does not need to use high throttle at negative collective pitch. The H_RSC_SLEWRATE allows for a maximum throttle slew rate to be set. Some petrol motors can cut if the throttle is moved too quickly. We had this happen at a height of 6m when switching from ALT_HOLD to STABILIZE mode. It also lowers the chance of the blades skewing in their holders with the sudden change of power when the heli is disarmed. In general it is a bad idea to do instantaneous large movements of a IC engine throttle. |

#ArduPilot Project#
The ArduPilot project is made up of:
User Support & Discussion Forums
Support Forum: http://discuss.ardupilot.org/
Community Site: http://ardupilot.org
Developer Information
Github repository: https://github.com/ArduPilot/ardupilot
Main developer wiki: http://dev.ardupilot.org
Developer email group: drones-discuss@googlegroups.com
Contributors
Dronecode.org
ArduPilot is part of Dronecode.org, a Linux Foundation collaborative project.
Dronecode encompasses projects that control flight, enable mission planning, and otherwise make drone flight and advanced functionality possible.
Dronecode development is done at the project level with coordinating and resource allocation performed by the TSC and the Board.
For information on the foundation please visit https://www.dronecode.org and https://github.com/Dronecode for further information or contact celder@dronecode.org
How To Get Involved
The ArduPilot project is open source and we encourage participation and code contributions: guidelines for contributors to the ardupilot codebase
We have an active group of Beta Testers especially for ArduCopter to help us find bugs: release procedures
Desired Enhancements and Bugs can be posted to the issues list.
Helping other users with log analysis on http://discuss.ardupilot.org/ is always appreciated:
There is a group of wiki editors as well in case documentation is your thing: ardu-wiki-editors@googlegroups.com
Developer discussions occur on drones-discuss@google-groups.com
