Re: [Paparazzi-devel] Rotocraft horizontal speed limiting in flight plan?

[Luke Ionno]

Felix,

 

Is there any way to change the maximum speed dynamically (i.e. with a SET command in a flight plan block), or can it only be changed at build-time?

Hi Mark,

 

you should be able to set the max speed by defining GUIDANCE_H_REF_MAX_SPEED in meters/second (defaults to 5 m/s) in your airframe file.

 

Cheers, Felix

Hello,

I'm new to Paparazzi and have been banging my head a little too much in trying to figure out how to limit the speed of my quadrotor.  I've been working in the simulator with the Quad_Lisa_M2 AC, and also in the real world using an AR Drone as the platform.

I'm trying to get the AR Drone to do some automatic waypoint navigation through a flight plan.  It works, but it looks like the quadrotor is flying with maximum horizontal speed as it goes.  I'd like to be able to set a maximum horizontal speed in the flight plan.

I'd appreciate any suggestions on how to do this and/or pointers on what topics I should read up on.

Thanks a lot,
Mark
