Now instead of requiring the buffer to fill completely before we can detect it is not draining, we use a time based mechanism to detect when none of the first few bytes are transmitted after sitting in our buffer a half second or more after flow control is enabled. This huristic is reliable only for the first several chracters because we believe that the radio must still have plenty of room in it's own buffers at that time even if it is not able to transmit them to the other radio yet. Note that the original algorithm made the same assumption. The new algorithm is especially helpful for cases where only keepalive messages are transmitted before other packets can be requested by the GCS. In this situation, the original code required almost 2 minutes to disable flow control and allow communication with the GCS. |

The ArduPilot project is made up of:
User Support & Discussion Forums
APM Forum: http://ardupilot.com/forum/index.php
Community Site: http://diydrones.com
Developer Information
Github repository: https://github.com/diydrones/ardupilot

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 diydrones.com and the APM forums 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
