2nd Pre-release

Fixes:

    Some minor fixes in CLI and less important things
    Some new target preparations

New:

    Added back configurable RC smoothing option
    AIR MODE Implementation! Full PID stability throughout entire throttle range. Mixer logic has been improved to improve low throttle stability. This mode also fully replaces pid_at_min_throttle implementation. AIR MODE needs to be enabled through switch or just enable it at all times.
    D scaling is adjusted for PID1 to better match CF transitions. Multiply your old D with 1.5 to get the same effect.
    Added new target AFROMINI (NAZE32 Alias with rev5 override)

:smiley:

New afromini target... is that a specific firmware for this beast?

Also is anyone knows what is an AIR MODE ? :>

Revs

I';ve been having a read. As far as I can tell, Air Mode gives you full attitude control at zero throttle, but I think you have to have Motor Stop disabled, I';m not 100% sure. It';s enabled in the Modes tab and can be always on or set to a switch.

And yes, I assume that the Arfomini target is for that :smiley:

Revs

I';ve just noticed.. RC3 has just been released :laugh: so RC2 only lasted 9 hrs! Well done Boris, I think that';s a record..

NOTE THAT AIR MODE IS A NEW FEATURE WHAT IS STILL BEING TESTED. PLEASE USE IT CAUTIOUSLY

Air mode sounds interesting. I know final glide has a switch to maintain a throttle signal with the stick at idle but this seems a much better solution. Rather conveniently I';m just starting working on those big air ballistic tricks!

Somebody describe air mode as the same as the CLI command pid_at_min_throttle.

Not sure how accurate this is?!?

annikk.exe

If I disable Air Mode, does it go into Water Mode? :D

No, it goes in to earth mode.. then fire mode.. then if you use water to put it out, you get the ';4 elements'; achievement! Yay!

Revs

Just to keep this updated, we';re now on RC6. RC3 was a ';bad build'; so probably want replacing if like me you have this installed....
