Removed Baro Init in Auto Mode.
increased Rate Error limit on Alt Hold
Slightly decreased alt P to reduce pulsing motors
Added rate limit for nav so we can reduce initial pitch to target.
Using MINIMUM_THROTTLE value to test for Reseting Alt Hold now.
Fixed extra Log formatting statement in CTUN.

Before: -> After
Stabilize P –> Stabilize P (Use NG values, or 8.3 x the older AC2 value)
Stabilize I –> Stabilize I (Stays same value)
Stabilize D –> Rate P (Stays same value)
–> Rate I (new)
Added a new value – an I term for rate. The old stabilization routines did not use this term. Please refer to the config.h file to read more about the new PIDs.
Added framework for using DCM corrected Accelerometer rates. Code is commented out for now.
Added set home at Arming.
Crosstrack is now a full PID loop, rather than just a P gain for more control.
Throttle now slews when switching out of Alt hold or Auto modes for less jarring transitions
Sonar and Baro PIDs are now combined into a throttle PID Yaw control is completely re-written.
Added Octa_Quad support - Max

Slighted tuned down D term in Loiter PIDs after testing, tuned up P slightly
fixed alt hold bug cause when gaining 3D lock in alt hold.
Mavlink now reports correct throttle scaling value in mavlink
git-svn-id: https://arducopter.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@2745 f9c3cf11-9bcb-44bc-f272-b75c42450872
new Loiter PIDs
tuned down control on standard frame
shunk the mixing range for sonar from 3 meters to 2 meters
added framework for Guided mode - not tested!
removed pitch and roll deadzone
decoupled SIMPLE mode from LOITER PIDs
Synced Mavlink with APM
Logs report correct WP number now.
disabled Sonar spike filter.
git-svn-id: https://arducopter.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@2722 f9c3cf11-9bcb-44bc-f272-b75c42450872
Includes updated motor tests. These need to be verified.
Nav loiter D was added (.03) - verify this helps.
Nav_lat is now filtered for Rate control. This is to keep jerky pitching to a minimum.

Cleanups, better logs for Alt hold, yaw debugging
I tuned up Hein's Hexa Yaw. I think we may need to adjust Yaw gains based on Frame type.
Crossing fingers, the next rev is the final.
git-svn-id: https://arducopter.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@2381 f9c3cf11-9bcb-44bc-f272-b75c42450872
updated motor setup test to be sequencial pulses of the motors in CW order.
Fixed Mission scripting logic
fixed Free yaw error in neutral throttle
fixed D term issue with Baro hold - was too high
incremented firmware revision, removed frame var
removed setup show from startup
removed unused EEPROM functions
fixed broken demo mission
fixed non working loiter with delay

The trunk is unstable, so please be careful. I've made a lot of changes based on the Sparkfun challange. Most include how we handle things like altitude, but the mission scripting has also been updated as well.
git-svn-id: https://arducopter.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@1920 f9c3cf11-9bcb-44bc-f272-b75c42450872
better handling of sonar at angles and baro mixing. - optimized for flats.
Crosstrack test bug found and fixed.
git-svn-id: https://arducopter.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@1916 f9c3cf11-9bcb-44bc-f272-b75c42450872
Takeoff now works well.
better logging.
tuned down kD for Yaw - was causing some bad behavior.
Auto mission now resets when entering mode.
git-svn-id: https://arducopter.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@1914 f9c3cf11-9bcb-44bc-f272-b75c42450872
Logs updated to do better Yaw Debugging
Landing is now rate limited
updated command desctiption.
git-svn-id: https://arducopter.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@1911 f9c3cf11-9bcb-44bc-f272-b75c42450872
removed FBW mode - no longer needed
added set_throttle_cruise_flag to auto set the throttle value for alt hold
added altitude minimum option for waypoints
added support for relative WPs
added support for Yaw tracking per WP in options bitmask
lowered default sonar kD value
increased minimal value to set the throttle cruise value with CH7 switch
updated README.txt
added additional stock test missions available in CLI
