The function `mission_item_to_position_setpoint()` is called in
`FollowTarget::update_position_sp()`. The nav_cmd is a
NAV_CMD_DO_FOLLOW_REPOSITION as set earlier in `set_follow_target_item`.
Since `mission_item_to_position_setpointi` returns early because the item
presumably contains no position, the lat/lon of the mission_item are
not copied over to the position_setpoint and therefore the vehicle will
never move in follow me position mode.
Adds MNT_DO_STAB for whether to stabilize by default.
Adds MNT_RANGE_{PITCH,ROLL,YAW} for the output range of each output channel in AUX mode (instead of hardcoded 360 degrees).
Adds MNT_OFF_{PITCH,ROLL,YAW} for adjusting the zero point of each output channel.
When checking a mission, the takeoff altitude is being checked
against the waypoint acceptance radius to ensure the MAV being
clear from ground before heading to the next waypoint.
However, until now the _horizontal_ acceptance radius was being
used, instead of the altitude reference value.
Targets PX4/Firmware/#7379
The TECS controller belongs really into the ECL (estimation & control library) where we have collected a number of vehicle control systems. It is being replaced by a new implementation of the algorithm, contributed by Paul Riseborough.
Instead of just checking whether the first waypoint is too far away from
home it makes sense to also check between waypoints.
This can prevent
- flyaways due to user errors, or
- catch the corner case where a takeoff waypoint is added to a mission
and therefore the first waypoint is not too far away, however, the
subsequent waypoints are still too far away.
