--- RELEASE-13.06 ---
|
|
|
|
This is the first official OpenPilot Revolution software release. This version
|
|
also supports the CopterControl, CC3D, OPLinkMini and the upcoming OP OSD.
|
|
There a number of significant backend changes in this version compared to
|
|
previous software releases: from new toolchains and build system to a source
|
|
code reformatting that is inline with our project style guidelines.
|
|
|
|
The goal of this release is to provide CC3D-style features for the new
|
|
Revolution platform (using the Revo's internal modem and external OPLinkMini
|
|
board). Advanced features such as Altitude Hold, Position Hold, Guidance,
|
|
Return to Home, and AutoLanding are still in development and will be available
|
|
in future releases. The availability of those features will depend on how many
|
|
people are able to contribute with code, testing and documentation.
|
|
|
|
Remember that the first Revo hardware batch was intended for developers/
|
|
bleeding-edge testers, not end users who want a 100% final platform.
|
|
|
|
- New bootloaders are REQUIRED for this release to support new features such
|
|
as erase settings and others. As always, bootloaders can be updated without
|
|
any special programmer hardware using the bootloader updater firmware files.
|
|
- F1 boards (CC, CC3D, OPLinkMini) require bootloader version 4 or higher.
|
|
- F4 boards (Revolution, OSD prototype) require bootloader version 5 or higher.
|
|
- Check the wiki for details of how to update them:

What's New / Release Notes
|
|
--------------------------
|
|
|
|
NEW:
|
|
|
|
- Firmware folders removed.
|
|
The firmware files folder has been removed in this release. These files
|
|
are now integrated into the GCS so they are always up to date and there is
|
|
less risk of a firmware mismatch. To update your firmware you must use
|
|
either Vehicle Setup Wizard (big green button at the top right on the
|
|
Welcome GCS tab) or the new Auto-Update button on the GCS Firmware tab.
|
|
|
|
- Responsiveness sliders.
|
|
To simplify tuning, we have introduced a new Responsiveness slider that
|
|
will allow you to modify stick response. For best results, you should
|
|
still tune your system with PIDs as tight as possible for better
|
|
stabilisation. This will result in better stabilisation, and at the
|
|
same time soft or sharp response according to your preferences.
|
|
|
|
- Auto-Update firmware.
|
|
This feature simplifies all OpenPilot board firmware updates. Now all
|
|
you have to do is click "Auto-update" on the Firmware tab and follow the
|
|
instructions to reflash your OpenPilot board. This is essentially the
|
|
same as Rescue but uses the embedded firmware images so there is no need
|
|
to browse for them anymore.
|
|
|
|
- Erase Settings Option.
|
|
We previously had a hacky way to delete bad or incompatible settings from
|
|
our OpenPilot boards. This old special firmware that did this is now
|
|
deprecated and the functionality is now integrated into the latest
|
|
bootloaders and firmwares.
|
|
|
|
To erase settings enter DFU (boot) mode (using Halt or Rescue function)
|
|
and click the "Erase settings" button on the Firmware tab and follow the
|
|
instructions. This will NOT work with an older bootloader and the "Erase
|
|
settings" button will be disabled if an out of date bootloader is detected.
|
|
|
|
- Language defaults.
|
|
GCS now uses the system default language (only French and English are
|
|
available currently, please contribute translations). You can change the
|
|
language in the GCS Options at any time.
|
|
|
|
- CDC driver install option (Windows only).
|
|
This is an optional USB virtual serial port that is useful, for example,
|
|
for updating your GPS configuration using the U-Blox u-Center software.
|
|
It is NOT required for normal configuration of OpenPilot boards. If it is
|
|
not installed, virtual serial port features will not be available. This
|
|
driver is not signed by Microsoft, but in fact it uses serial port drivers
|
|
from Windows and only the driver information INF file is supplied by
|
|
OpenPilot.
|
|
|
|
- Lots of help tooltips were added to the GCS. Hovering your mouse over an
|
|
option in the GCS will show them, please review for help during tuning/
|
|
setting up.
|
|
|
|
- A large amount of general improvements, code clean ups and minor bugs
|
|
resolved.
|
|
|
|
KNOWN ISSUES:
|
|
|
|
- On Linux you should remove the OpenPilot package if it was previously
|
|
installed, then install this new one. This is a known issue and likely
|
|
be fixed later.
|
|
|
|
- Due to changes in USB descriptors to support new features, USB drivers
|
|
on Windows must be updated. If after using Rescue or Wizard or Auto-Update
|
|
button the GCS cannot connect to the board, you may be experiencing this
|
|
USB issue. To resolve it you should remove the old drivers (ones with
|
|
yellow exclamation mark) and allow Windows to find them again.
|
|
|
|
Here is how to do it:
|
|
|
|
Windows XP:
|
|
- Right click on "My Computer" on your desktop and select "Properties".
|
|
- Select the "Hardware" tab.
|
|
- Select the "Device Manager".
|
|
- Scroll down the list until you see the "Universal Serial Bus Controllers"
|
|
selection.
|
|
- Click it to expand the list of USB drivers. Right-click on the driver(s)
|
|
you wish to uninstall and select "Uninstall".
|
|
|
|
Windows 7/Vista:
|
|
- Right click on "My Computer" on your desktop and select "Properties".
|
|
- Select "Device Manager" in the upper left-hand corner of the window.
|
|
- Scroll down the list until you see the "Universal Serial Bus Controllers"
|
|
selection.
|
|
- Click it to expand the list of USB drivers. Right-click on the driver(s)
|
|
you wish to uninstall and select "Uninstall".
|
|
|
|
Then disconnect the board from USB, wait few seconds and re-connect it to
|
|
your computer. Windows should find new drivers and install them properly.
|
|
|
|
- If GCS crashes when switching to the Flight Data tab, it usually means
|
|
your PC needs newer video drivers. That tab contains a ModelView widget
|
|
which uses OpenGL. It is known to crash on some graphics cards with old
|
|
and buggy drivers.
|
|
|
|
- Sensor calibration is not final. It will be reworked completely to
|
|
increase its accuracy and make it easier to use.
|
|
|
|
- Until the calibration is reworked, default attitude estimation algorithm
|
|
used by Revo is a complimentary filter with magnetometers disabled. Hence
|
|
Revo does not use them yet to correct yaw drift. Magnetometers can be
|
|
enabled, but you should properly calibrate them first. That's the reason
|
|
why they are disabled by default.
|
|
|
|
- AltitudeHold/Vario modes are enabled but not officially supported. Do
|
|
not expect it to work perfectly and be considered production quality.
|
|
You may play with it and report your issues and suggestions at your own
|
|
risk. If you are not using a case for your Revo, we strongly recommend
|
|
covering the barometer sensor with some foam to shield the sensor from
|
|
wind and light.
|
|
|
|
- Note that throttle stick in AltitudeVario mode is used to control vertical
|
|
velocity, sometimes called vario altitude in other platforms, centre stick
|
|
means hold altitude and there is a dead band around centre stick.
|
|
|
|
- There are currently no configuration options for the Radio module in
|
|
the Revolution except for Radio enable/disable and output power. This is
|
|
intentional because all configuration should be done using its paired
|
|
ground OPLink coordinator.
|
|
|
|
How to configure the Revolution to OPLinkMini radio link:
|
|
|
|
- Make sure you have the newest bootloaders and matching firmwares
|
|
between the Revolution, GCS and OPLink.
|
|
- Enable the radio in the Revolution, click save and disconnect the board
|
|
from USB.
|
|
- Power it from external supply to continue.
|
|
- Then connect the OPLink board to USB and scroll down in the GCS config
|
|
widget to find OPLink icon at the end of list. This icon is only
|
|
available when an OPLink is detected.
|
|
- To pair the two radios, select the Revolution side radio address in the
|
|
list of found boards, select it, click Add to add to the list of paired
|
|
radios and click Save. After unplugging the board from the USB and
|
|
plugging back your OPLink it should show "Connected", and you can
|
|
continue with the configuration.
|
|
|
|
- Do not set the Revolution modem or OPLinkMini output power to high values
|
|
without antenna connected, this can damage the hardware.
|
|
|
|

|
|
you may track it using the following URL: http://bugs.openpilot.org/browse/OP-XXX
|
|
|
|
+ Only French translation is updated, use English for other locales or help with translations.
|
|
+ Radio Wizard confused by a reversed throttle, fix it on your transmitter before starting wizard.
|
|
+ Radio Wizard Throttle display does not show full range properly.
|
|
+ [Windows 8] USB Driver is broken.
|
|
+ Firmware Update Instructions on Firmware Tab not entirely accurate for all upgrade paths.
|
|
+ Tricopter's using Vehicle Wizard need to check servo does not need reversed manually.
|
|
+ XAircraft ESCs uses non-standard PPM range which may cause issues with Vehicle Wizard.
|
|
+ Spectrum Satellite Receivers setup in Radio Wizard may have wrong protocol set.
|
|
+ Old Intel 965 have an OpenGL bug that turns the QML PFD black and while.
|
|
+ [OP-732] Import UAV Settings for inactive modules crashes the running firmware (board restarts).
|
|
Workaround: update firmware, power cycle, enable modules, power cycle, import configuration.
|
|
+ [OP-747] Board infinitely reboots itself after firmware upgrade (settings erase firmware is a workaround).
|
|
+ [OP-723] GCS uses the system language ot the 1st run. After restart it uses English (can be changed later).
|
|
+ [OP-725] GCS camera stab config error message disappears too fast (but config error is cleared as it should)
|
|
+ [OP-767] GCS does not send AttitudeActual packets over serial port when GPS is connected and system is armed
|
|
+ [OP-768] GCS does not show UAV position on the map (master or next CC branches, but works in Revo branches)
|
|
+ [OP-769] Can't enter "12,45" on German system. Workaround: change GCS language (in fact, locale) to German.

|
|
Implemented smoothing filter for accelerometer data.
|
|
Added support for Mode 3 and Mode 4 to the TX Configuration Wizard.
|
|
|
|
--- RELEASE-12.10.1 ---
|
|
|
|
2012-10-26
|
|
Temporary disabled AutoTune GCS GUI. It was listed as an experimental
|
|
feature in the previous release, there were however a few cases where
|
|
it did not behave as expected.
|
|
|
|
--- RELEASE-12.10 ---
|
|
|
|
2012-10-06
|
|
Receiver port can now be configured as PPM *and* PWM inputs.
|
|
Pin 1 is PPM, other pins are PWM inputs.
|
|
|
|
2012-07-27
|
|
Added the ability to load stylesheets from external file according to operating system:
|
|
macos.qss, linux.qss, windows.qss
|
|
Files should be placed inside the app folder.
|
|
|
|
2012-07-27
|
|
Several UI changes.
|
|
MixerCurveWidget refactoring, now as a simple and advanced view.
|
|
|
|
2012-07-27
|
|
Added "advanced mode" option to general settings. Right now it only shows the hidden apply buttons.
|
|
To enable go to tools->options->General and click one of the checkboxes to give focus to the form,
|
|
then press F7
|
|
|
|
2012-07-27
|
|
Made the flight mode switch and accessory pots move according to user input on the input wizard.
|
|
|
|
2012-07-27
|
|
Changed the board pictures on the uploader widget
|
|
|
|
2012-07-27
|
|
Add more verbose debug output on the UAVOBJECTS saving code.
|
|
|
|
2012-08-11
|
|
CopterControl can now emulate an 8-channel USB HID joystick. Primarily,
|
|
this lets you use any RC transmitter with flight simulators on your PC.
|
|
|
|
2012-07-20
|
|
AeroSimRC simulator plugin is now included into the Windows distribution
|
|
(will be installed into .../OpenPilot/misc/AeroSIM-RC directory). Still
|
|
being an experimental development tool, it could be used to play with
|
|
HITL version 2. Other platforms include udp_test utility which can be
|
|
used to check the connectivity with AeroSimRC plugin running on Windows
|
|
machine.
|
|
|
|
2012-07-10
|
|
On Windows the installation mode was changed from per-user to per-machine
|
|
(for all users) installation. It is recommended to completely uninstall
|
|
previous version before installing new one to remove per-user installed
|
|
files. Per-machine installation requires elevated (administrator) previleges
|
|
during install. But since the same rights are now required to install
|
|
optional CDC driver (virtual communication port), it was deemed acceptable.
|
|
|
|
2012-06-04
|
|
AeroSimRC support merged into next
|
|
|
|
2012-05-26
|
|
VirtualFlybar which allows a more aggressive flight mode than rate mode
|
|
support. Also PiroCompensation added.
|
|
|
|
2012-05-26
|
|
Revert some UI changes that didn't work consistently between OSX and Windows.
|
|
|
|
2012-05-24
|
|
Merged the updated firmware for the PipXtreme, thanks to Brian for a lot of
|
|
work on this.
|
|
|
|
2012-05-04
|
|
Support for CC3D. This involved changes to various things such as the sensors
|
|
being split from AttitudeRaw to Accels,Gyros,Magnetometer. A single firmware
|
|
image fw_coptercontrol will run on both CC and CC3D. When compiling the
|
|
bootloader one must set the HW_REVISION to the appropriate value. 0x01 is for
|
|
CC and 0x02 is for CC3D. If the wrong bootloader is installed the firmware
|
|
will not run.
|
|
|
|
2012-05-02
|
|
Reduction in the memory usage due to the UAVObject metadata. Now the update
|
|
periods are using a smaller data type and the various flags relating to access
|
|
controls and update modes are stored in a bitfield. The UAVObjectBrowser has
|
|
not been updated to allow these modes to be easily changed.
|
|
|
|
2012-03-31
|
|
Support for ground vehicle configuration has been added to the the GCS.
|
|
|
|
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
|
|
-DDIAG_ALL.
|
|
|
|
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.
