setting ARSPD_ENABLE to 1 and ARSPD_USE to 0 allows the airspeed
sensor to be initialised and logged without it being used for flight
control. This is very useful when initially testing an airspeed sensor
in a new plane. It also makes it possible to enable/disable the use of
the airspeed sensor during a flight at any time.
building with TELEMETRY_UART2=ENABLED allows you to use the solder
bridge on the APM2 to enable telemetry on UART2. This allows both USB
telemetry and a radio at the same time.
this disables the compass in DCM if MAG_ENABLE is changed in
flight. Without this we would use a fixed yaw once the compass is
disabled
This also makes sure we don't pass the compass to DCM till we have
done a read. This ensures we have a good compass fix for the initial
DCM heading
hold_course is either -1 (for disabled) or a course to hold for
takeoff/landing. This makes the code a bit clearer.
It also resets hold_course in all non-auto modes, to ensure it isn't
used
Fixes compatibility for APM2. Also a significant update to the battery monitoring code: We previously had monitoring modes for individual cell voltages for 3 and 4 cell lipos. These have been removed as they were never really supported (the cell voltages were computed but were not reported or recorded anywhere). Also, some clean-up/prep work was done for supporting monitoring 2 separate battery packs. The CLI battery and current monitoring tests were consolidated into 1 test.
This patch will boost the target airspeed as necessary to keep the ground speed above a parameter value - param_min_groundspeed. Airspeed is still limited to FBW-max. Setting min_groundspeed to zero (default) disables the feature.
