Release Notes - OpenPilot - Version RELEASE-15.05 NANO-RC2
New hardware support - the Revolution Nano.
Fully autonomous flight is now possible with autotakeoff and landing as flight modes available to path plans.
An all new implementation of altitude vario provides improved altitude maintenance and smoother flight.
A new RateTrainer mode for beginners and aerial photography make it easier to learn this mode my limiting the pitch and roll extents.
4CH transmitters for multirotor and 2CH for ground is now supported.
It is now easier to takeoff with an improved axislock on yaw implementation.
Full speed flight just got faster with new motor constraints that maintain your ability to enact roll without requiring a upper throttle limit.
Setup on GPS just got easier. See the wiki for details.
New control protocols and support for due telemtry and OSD programing have been added.
CC3D is no longer supported. Upgrade to the Revolution Nano for better flight characteristics and Revolution features.
Release Notes - OpenPilot - Version RELEASE-15.05 RC3
This release introduces new features and new hardware support for the Revolution Nano. Note that the CC3D is not supported by this feature release. New features for multirotors include:
- Fully autonomous flight is now possible with auto-takeoff and landing as flight modes available to path plans.
- An all new implementation of altitude vario provides improved altitude maintenance and smoother flight.
- A new RateTrainer flight mode for beginners and aerial photographers makes it easier to use this mode by limiting the pitch and roll extents.
- A new GPS assisted VelocityRoam flight mode replacing the PositionRoam flight mode. This uses AltVario and a velocity controller for smooth GPS guided flight.
- 4CH transmitters for multirotor (and 2CH for ground) is now supported if a single flight mode count is set.
- It is now easier to takeoff with an improved axis-lock on yaw implementation.
- Full speed flight just got faster with new motor constraints that maintain your ability to enact roll without requiring an upper throttle limit of 90%.
- Setup of GPS is now automatic with auto-baud detection.
- Support for dual telemetry and minim OSD programing have been added.
- New control protocols have been introduced.
