- landing slope/curve library removed
- flare curve removed (the position setpoints will not be tracked during a flare, and were being ignored by open-loop maneuvers anyway)
- flare curve replaced by simply commanding a constant glide slope to the ground from the approach entrance, and commanding a sink rate once below flaring alt
- flare is now time-to-touchdown -based to account for differing descent rates (e.g. due to wind)
- flare pitch limits and height rate commands are ramped in from the previous iteration's values at flare onset to avoid jumpy commands
- TECS controls all aspects of the auto landing airspeed and altitude/height rate, and is only constrained by pitch and throttle limits (lessening unintuitive open loop manuever overrides)
- throttle is killed on flare
- flare is the singular point of no return during landing
- lateral manual nudging of the touchdown point is configurable via parameter, allowing the operator to nudge (via remote) either the touchdown point itself (adjusting approach vector) or shifting the entire approach path to the left or right. this helps when GCS map or GNSS uncertainties set the aircraft on a slightly offset approach"
Fixes the error:
Aborting due to missing @type tag in file: 'build/px4_fmu-v5_test/etc/init.d/airframes/11001_hexa_cox'
This can happen due to a change to e.g. board_serial_ports, which changes
the CLI command and triggers a re-execution of the airframe processing.
- 4096 of 3 hex digits each for rev and ver is enough.
#defines used in SPI versions do not be long format, use use the macro
- Board provides a prefix and the formatting is sized and built in
- No need for funky board_get_base_eeprom_mtd_manifest interface
Original mft is used where the abstraction is done with the MFT interface

rename follow_me_status to follow_target_status
enable follow_target_estimator on skynode
implement the responsiveness parameter:
The responsiveness parameter should behave similarly to the previous
follow-me implementation in navigator. The difference here is that
there are now two separate gains for position and velocity fusion.
The previous implemenation in navigator had no velocity fusion.
Allow follow-me to be flown without RC
SITL tests for follow-me flight task
This includes:
- Testing the setting for the follow-me angle
- Testing that streaming position only or position
and velocity measurements both work
- Testing that RC override works
Most of these tests are done with a simulated model
of a point object that moves on a straight line. So
nothing too spectacular. But it makes the test checks
much easier.
Since the estimator for the target actually checks new
measurements and compares them to old ones, I also added
random gausian noise to the measurements with a fixed seed
for deterministic randomness. So repeated runs produce
exactly the same results over and over.
Half of the angles are still missing in MAVSDK. Need to create
an upstream PR to add center left/right and rear left/right options.
These and the corresponding SITL tests need to be implemented
later.
sitl: Increase position tolerance during follow-me
Astro seems to barely exceed the current tolerance (4.3 !< 4.0)
causing CI to fail. The point of the CI test is not to check
the accuracy of the flight behaviour, but only the fact that the
drone is doing the expected thing. So the exact value of this
tolerance is not really important.
follow-me: gimbal control in follow-me
follow-me: create sub-routines in flight task class
follow-me: use ground-dist for emergency ascent
dist_bottom is only defined when a ground facing distance sensor exist.
It's therefore better to use dist_ground instead, which has the distance
to the home altitude if no distance sensor is available.
As a consequence it will only be possible to use follow-me in a valley
when the drone has a distance sensor.
follow-me: point gimbal to the ground in 2D mode
follow-me: another fuzzy msg handling for the estimator
follow-me: bugfix in acceleration saturation limit
follow-me: parameter for filter delay compensation
mantis: dont use flow for terrain estimation
follow-me: default responsiveness 0.5 -> 0.1
0.5 is way too jerky in real and simulated tests.
flight_task: clarify comments for bottom distance
follow-me: minor comment improvement
follow-me: [debug] log emergency_ascent
follow-me: [debug] log gimbal pitch
follow-me: [debug] status values for follow-me estimator
follow-me: setting for gimbal tracking mode
follow-me: release gimbal control at destruction

Without this, uavcan creates MixingOutput classes which then create
empty actuator_outputs publications. This then prevents the motor
output in HITL to be forwarded to the simulator via mavlink.
- remove separate flaperon controls input to mixer instead enable spoiler support
- add slew rate limiting on both flap and spoiler controls
- add spoiler configuration for Landing and Descend
- add trimming from spoiler deflection
- FW Attitude control: remove FW_FLAPS_SCL param -->
The flap settings for takeoff and landing are now specified relative to full range.

[4] is reserved for Flaps, so also having the tilt on it was preventing us from
using flaps on tiltrotors, and other ripple effects.
By using [8] the tilt is separated from all other channels - it requires to increase the size of
actuator_controls by 1 to 9.
