Andrew Tridgell 11975223dd AP_Motors: added H_RSC_POWER_NEGC and H_RSC_SLEWRATE
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.

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
