The baro observation noise parameter is often over-estimated in order as
a measure to mitigate temporary offsets in the readings due to wind
gusts or poor pressure compensation tuning. The side effect is that the
innovation sequence monitoring based on normalized innovation struggles
to detect an offset in the state because the innovation isn't
statistically significant.
To counter this issue, a simpler check is added to trigger the process
noise boost when the innovation has the same sign for a long period of
time.
We use lockdown to prevent outputs like motors and servos from being
active in HITL simulation. This means that we can't treat the lockdown
flag as a flight_terminated, otherwise we can't arm in HITL at all.
I got multiple times the feedback now that a consistent delay
is helpful and makes sense but the default delay
is too long
for low battery action where you're trying to come back in time
and possibly the emergency reaction kicks in while the critical action
is executing which leads to a longer accumulated delay.
To return Exponential Values, which is helpful for reducing the
sensitivity of the stick around the centered value (0), since it's
exponential curve.
Useful for user adjustment implementations, where accidentally touching the stick
wouldn't have so much effect when using the Exponential value, compared
to using the raw position value.
This fixes an invalid memory access when exiting the module:
exit_and_cleanup destroys the object, but lock_guard is destructed after
and accesses the lock.
- limit to handling only 1 motor failure
- Log which motor failures are handled
- Remove motor from effectiveness matrix without
recomputing the scale / normalization
- this allows jumping straight to a non-SBUS RC protocol
- increased the scan time per protocol 300->500 ms, which the newer DSM parser seems to need in some cases.
- only set RC_INPUT_PROTO if we've had a successful RC lock for > 3 seconds
Normally _should_run for mission is only ever true if _should_run for the
normal log is. There are exceptions though:
- the log buffer fails to allocate
- there was a write failure (e.g. due to SD card removal)
In that situation, the writer would not wait anymore but busy-loop.
This replaces the propeller_torque_disabled flag to disable yaw by differential thrust
for tiltrotor and tailsitter VTOLs, as propeller_torque_disabled is not enough to set
effectiveness of an acutator in the yaw axis to 0 in case it's tilted.

Special case tiltrotor: instead of passing a 3D thrust vector (that would mostly have a x-component in FW, and z in
MC), pass the vector magnitude as z-component, plus the collective tilt. Passing 3D thrust plus tilt is not feasible as they
can't be allocated independently, and with the current controller it's not possible to have collective tilt calculated
by the allocator directly.
