We decided to remove this after 4.2 was out in favour of
MAV_CMD_DO_SET_HOME which has been available since 2015.
The gcs-maintainers list was notified in Feburary.
AP_Logger.h is a nexus of includes; while this is being improved over
time, there's no reason for the library headers to include AP_Logger.h
as the logger itself is access by singleton and the structures are in
LogStructure.h
This necessitated moving The PID_Info structure out of AP_Logger's
namespace. This cleans up a pretty nasty bit - that structure is
definitely not simply used for logging, but also used to pass pid
information around to controllers!
There are a lot of patches in here because AP_Logger.h, acting as a
nexus, was providing transitive header file inclusion in many (some
unlikely!) places.
when rudder disarm is disabled we should allow full yaw control
regardless of throttle level. We should also only disable left yaw
when throttle is at zero, as right yaw does not indicate pilot may be
trying to disarm
when a quadplane touches down in an auto throttle mode the pilot may
use rudder to disarm. The check for rudder disarm was only active in
modes without auto-throttle. This expands it to all modes if the
throttle has hit the lower limit
So instead of updating plane.guided_WP_loc and then calling
set_guided_WP(void) to copy that state into plane.next_WP_loc we pass
the new location in the call to set_guided_WP(const Location &loc).
avoidance was the only place which was not entirely over-writing
plane.guided_WP_loc. However, plane.next_WP_loc was updated to be the
current location when we entered guided mode. If we update the
horizontal/vertical avoidance now it is relative to the current
location, not the guided wp location, which could be quite important.
this improves 4 things in the POSITION1 controller based on logs from
4.2.0beta2. The changes are designed to increase the tolerance to
an incorrect value for Q_TRANS_DECEL, reducing landing overshoot
1) we fix the initialisation of the acceleration. The
init_xy_controller() function assumes zero accel, so we need to
call set_accel_desired_xy_cmss() just after that init to get the
correct accel. Thanks to Leonard for this fix
2) if we decel more than expected due to too low Q_TRANS_DECEL we
need to reduce the target speed, rather than putting the nose down
3) lower the default Q_P_JERK_XY to a value more appropriate for most
quadplanes (Leonard suggested a value of 2)
4) fixed the pitch envelope from Q_BACKTRANS_MS to start after the
airbrake phase is complete
we need to setup last_fw_mode_ms and last_fw_nav_pitch_cd when we
enter POSITION1 mode so that the expanding envelope pitch limit from
Q_BACKTRANS_MS is applied correctly
Send a "Geofence breach" message to the Ground Control Station. Without this when the fence is breached and if anything happens as a result, such as RTL, it will happen silently.
if we are flying too far off the target vector then exit airbrake
state. This prevents flying for a long distance away from the landing
point in airbrake mode
