dev version r1317 issues

Post by scanman »

I'm trying the dev version r1317 because it has integrate GPS on serial port, suitable for the Crius All in one pro board - by the way the pos hold and baro hold are so good on this version.

The problem i have is if i include the #define FAILSAFE option then the board doesnt work properly, it will not arm and it will not read the correct throttle reading in the gui.

just FYI to anyone working on this dev version!

Hi,

after updating from 2.1 i have issues in GPS modes PosHold and RTL, PosHold is quite exact but as soon GPS is engaged, my Copter shows small oscillations, in Acro and Stable Mode it flies very stable with no Oscillations at all...

with 2.1 there were no such issues...

is there some new paramter in the code to play with?

btw, all PIDs are stock value...

Flyduino Mega
FreeImu 0.43
GPS from flyduino
Frame Flyduino FCP HL with flyduino ESC and Tiger motors
Quad X configuration

greetings from Black Forest

Hi!
Last devs have redesigned failsafe to be very strict about the pulse time: Everything which is under 1000 or above 2000 on any of first four RC channels causes failsafe activation. It's very sensitive, really 999microsecond pulse can be wrong!
I had the same problems and after readjusting radio it's now OK.
Try it!

Almost not worth mentioning but perhaps need to log it somewhere ... build fails when selecting LCD_CONF_AUX but you have no BUZZER, simple fix in LCD.ino

John

#if defined(BUZZER)
&lcd_param_text52, &conf.activate[BOXBEEPERON],&__AUX1,
&lcd_param_text52, &conf.activate[BOXBEEPERON],&__AUX2,
#ifndef SUPPRESS_LCD_CONF_AUX34
&lcd_param_text52, &conf.activate[BOXBEEPERON],&__AUX3,
&lcd_param_text52, &conf.activate[BOXBEEPERON],&__AUX4,
#endif
#endif

Also Hambuger, I have made and tested a code change that moves the pre-compiled camera gimbal gains to the display so they can be changed at the field. I would like in next release to save keep adding it in, how would I go about that?

start a new thread in software.development which contains
- a unified diff,
- state against which version,
- describe what it does.
Wait for discussion etc.
