Hi.
I want to ask if it is a good idea to add some AoA compensation for high altitudes in
Paparazzi control loops.
From my long range tests i found that when flying in higher altitudes the plane speeds up considerably by increasing throttle often to 100% possibly because the AoA set during the setup flights (close to ground) is not enough any more to keep the aircraft from loosing height without increasing throttle (speed) in higher altitudes above 1000m. I was thinking something like increasing the INS pitch neutral to say one degree per 1000m.
Any ideas or opinions welcomed.
Chris
