- previously we only kept track of starting flying while in auto which gets reset when switching in and out of auto and on takeoff/land. Now we keep track of a "global" one that will track the is_flying flag regardless of the flight mode.
fixes https://github.com/diydrones/ardupilot/issues/2778
When executing a takeoff, and the throttle is suppressed, but we're already flying, we should unsuppress the throttle. We can get into this situation if we reset the mission in-flight.
- enabled via new param LAND_ABORT_THR default is 0 (disabled)
- Triggered via 95% throttle during landing, a landing abort will take place.
- This copies all takeoff params for right now, we can make this better later if needed
- added mission item command to NAV_LAND which is the abort takeoff altitude. If 0 then use last takeoff if available, else use 30m
- hold heading, just like takeoff, until altitude is reached
- pitch is constrained to takeoff pitch, or else 10deg if not available
- After abort altitude is reached, the normal landing restart happens (DO_LAND_START or decrement mission)
- restart landing by jumping to DO_LAND_START or decrement mission on mode change
- const values declared as default double
- This is the first pass in fixing the warnings, trying to catch some low hanging fruit. All const double values are changed to float. For example: 1.0 is now 1.0f.
- Only except is in location.pde where some double stuff is happening
- I did not change the exponentials 1e7 type stuff which should be 1e7f. A different commit
The is_flying() function is too simplistic to be used as a generic
status. Added a sticky heuristic method that depends on the arm
state. More thought should go into the boolean result of isFlying but
this is at least safer than the original method.
this calculates the aerodymanic load factor from smoothed airspeed and
uses it to limit roll to keep it below the level where the load factor
would take us past the aerodymanic limit of the airframe
this solves a problem of poor initial yaw due to poor compass offsets
causing a takeoff to not be in the direction the plane is pointing. A
summed gyro is used until the GPS speed is above 5m/s for 2 seconds,
then the GPS heading corrected by the summed gyro error is used for L1
based navigation for the rest of the takeoff
this adds some down trim when at throttle levels below the trim
throttle in FBWA mode.
defaults to 200 centi-degrees. I may adjust based on flight tests
