Release 4.2.1beta1 19th May 2022 |
|
|
|
|
-------------------------------- |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This is a minor release on top of the 4.2 firmware. It has a number of |
|
|
|
|
bug fixes and safety improvements. The changes are: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- fixed a bug in handling wrap in log download when 500 logs are on the microSD card |
|
|
|
|
- added FlyingMoonF407 and FlyingMoonF427 support |
|
|
|
|
- fixed RSSI input on the RCIN pin on CubeBlack and CubeOrange |
|
|
|
|
- fixed update of gyro FFT throttle tracking |
|
|
|
|
- removed unhealthy reporting on airspeed sensors with negative pressure as this commonly happens on VTOL takeoff |
|
|
|
|
- improved handling of large LOITER_TURNS mission items, expanding maximum to 2.5km |
|
|
|
|
- added fuel usage integration on Lutan EFI |
|
|
|
|
- refuse arming in AUTO when in a landing sequence due to a failsafe |
|
|
|
|
- account for sprung throttle (from RC_OPTIONS) in throttle suppression code |
|
|
|
|
- improved safety of in-flight compass learning |
|
|
|
|
- fixed automatic airspeed ratio calibration for 2nd airspeed sensor |
|
|
|
|
- increase safety of GUIDED -> AUTO takeoff sequence used by QGC |
|
|
|
|
- added CAN_Dx_UC_ESC_OF parameter for ESC offset for bandwidth efficiency |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The most important fixes are related to how QGC (which is often used |
|
|
|
|
on modern GCS style transmitters) does automatic takeoff with the |
|
|
|
|
"swipe right for takeoff" system. QGC does a sequence of a change to |
|
|
|
|
GUIDED mode, then arming, then change to AUTO mode. That sequence is |
|
|
|
|
dangerous if the current waypoint is not properly reset to a VTOL |
|
|
|
|
takeoff. To fix this a number of changes were made to ensure that |
|
|
|
|
takeoff is done with a valid VTOL takeoff. The changes include |
|
|
|
|
handling of failsafe events (such as GCS or RC failsafe) part way |
|
|
|
|
through this takeoff sequence. If QRTL or RTL is engaged during this |
|
|
|
|
sequence then the vehicle will switch to QLAND. |
|

|
Happy flying! |
