Short summary of changes. For a complete list see the git log. 2012-02-14 New QML based system to allow more flexible UI. Upgraded stabilization configuration. 2012-01-02 CC FW now supports USB Virtual Com Port (VCP/CDC) in addition to the original HID interface New ComUsbBridge module can bridge any serial port to the USB CDC port CC FW now detects repeated faults during init and boots with default hwsettings 2012-01-02 Added new camera stabilization features: AxisLock mode and LPF. 2011-12-10 Merged a change that sorts the UAVO fields based on size. Because this changes all of the objects, erase all existing flash files based on this. 2011-11-04 New Spektrum/JR satellite receiver driver implementation. It now provides explicit selection of DSM2 (and DSMJ), DSMX (10bit) and DSMX (11bit) serial protocol variations to better serve different frame and resolution modes. The protocol name used now is DSM instead of previously used Spektrum to make it less ambiguous when used with JR 2.4GHz radios. 2011-10-20 Inputs can be remapped to outputs to allow up to 10 channels of control. The receiver inputs remap as follows: Receiver 3 because output channel 7 Receiver 4 because output channel 8 Receiver 5 because output channel 9 Receiver 6 because output channel 10 2011-10-11 Fix for the Mac telemetry rates and specifically how long enumeration took. 2011-10-08 Make the flash chip need to be have bad magic for a full second before erasing settings. Should avoid random lost settings. 2011-09-12 Max rate now ONLY applies to attitude and axis lock mode. Manual rate is the only term that limits the rate mode now (and in axis lock when you push stick only manual rate applies). Also integrals are reset when unused. 2011-09-09 Some large updates to the input system. Now multiple receivers can be connected at once. A wizard was added for configuring the input channels. A specific collective pitch channel was added. 2011-09-04 Improvements to the failsafe handling code for inputs. PWM power off is now detected properly. Powering on transmitter for Spektrum Satellite no longer causes a glitch on servos. 2011-08-10 Added Camera Stabilization and a gui to configure this. This is a software selectable module from the GUI. However, a restart is required to make it active. The GUI does not currently expose the configuration for using the transmitter to change the view angle but this is supported by the hardware. 2011-08-10 By default a lot of diagnostic objects that were enabled by default are now disabled in the build. This include TaskInfo (and all the FreeRTOS options that provide that debugging information). Also MixerStatus, I2CStatus, WatchdogStatus and RateDesired. These can be reenabled for debugging with -DDIAGNOSTICS. 2011-08-04 Fixed packaging aesthetic issues. Also avoid runtime issues on OSX Lion by disabling the ModelView and Notify plugins for now (sorry). 2011-07-29 Added support for PPM receivers from James W. Now all 4 interfaces (R/C standard PWM, combined PPM (MK), Spektrum satellite, Futaba S.Bus) are supported and configurable through the GCS hardware configuration tab. 2011-07-17 Updated module initialization from Mathieu which separates the initialization from the task startup. Also implements a method to reclaim unused ram from initialization and end of memory for the FreeRTOS heap. 2011-07-12 Improvements to the stabilization code. Included a LPF on the gyros to smooth out noise in high vibration environments. Also two new modes: axis-lock and weak leveling. Axis-lock will try and hold an axis at a fixed position and reject any disturbances. This is like heading-hold on a heli for the tail but can be useful for other axes. Weak leveling is rate mode with a weak correction to self level the craft - good for easier rate mode flying. 2011-07-07 Dynamic hardware configuration from Stac. The input type is now selected from ManualControlSettings.InputMode and the aircraft must be rebooted after changing this. Also for CopterControl the HwSettings object must indicate which modules are connected to which ports. PPM currently not working.
