* [board] support of the Chimera autopilot based on STM32F7
- based on ChibiOS only (updated to master for proper support of F7)
- requires some specific ram for DMA operations
- SBUS driver updated and support of internal inverted logic option of F7
* [chibios] fix some compilation errors
* [chibios] fix some a few PR comments
- test less MCU types
- support F1 for uart driver
- more autodetect for VTOR_INIT
* use correct path
* choose a working version of chibios
* [chibios] fix some comments from PR review
- add some doc
- protect LED
- update TRUE/FALSE for lowercase
- pick a slightly older version of chibios (wrong path in makefile not
fixed yet)
* [autopilot] refactor autopilot API for both firmwares
With this, fixedwing and rotorcraft are mostly using the same interface
for the autopilot. Some specific code and messages handling are still
firmware dependent.
A large part of the autopilot logic of the fixedwing is moved from
main_ap to autopilot_static.
More getter/setter functions are provided.
* [autopilot] update the rest of the system and the conf
for using the refactored autopilot API
* [autopilot] fix some errors from CI servers
* [actuators] use dummy actuators module to prevent autoloading
* Rename Bart_heliDD_INDI.xml to tudelft_bs_helidd_indi.xml
* Rename Bart_heliDD_pid.xml to tudelft_bs_helidd_pid.xml
* Delete tudelft_course2016_bebop_colorfilter.xml
* Delete tudelft_course2016_bebop_avoider.xml
* [actuators] don't autoload actuators when set to 'none'
* [gcs] autodetect firmware for strip mode button
This variable is for calculation of the turn speed, and does not influence the airspeed.
With a higher speed, the vehicle will turn less in a turn with the same roll.
This pull request adds a rotation matrix to the stereocam module group. The stereocam in combination with the lisa-s, the new lisa MXs, and the ardrone are usually mounted on there in different direction (facing backwards, forwards and downwards). Before, we had to constantly double check the direction of the velocities to transform that manually to body fixed coordinates, which was very prone to mistakes. Same goes with the derotation of optical flow on the stereocam.
This addition should make it easier and more generic for platforms with the mounted stereocamera.
Before, if you wanted to go back from forward flight to hover, the pitch angle setpoint would jump back to hover. Some vehicles can handle this, but possibly not all. With this commit when you switch back the setpoint will gradually come up again, just like in the transition to forward flight.
Also add the attitude visualizer message to the indi controller
