I have overcome the 45 deg pitch limitation by multiplying the pitch by 2.
ArduCopter/control_auto.cpp:
void Copter::auto_spline_run()
attitude_control->input_euler_angle_roll_pitch_yaw(wp_nav->get_roll(), 2.0*wp_nav->get_pitch(), get_auto_heading(), true, get_smoothing_gain());
This gets the Pitch up to 56 degrees. But when I roll into a sharp turn or try to pitch more, the throttle maxes out at 100%, How do I set up set up an overpowered Quad that hovers at 10% throttle and flies fast in AUTO mode?
MOT_THST_HOVER=0.1 and MOT_HOVER_LEARN=0.0 doen’t seem to change anything.
Our UAVs with fly better slowly when they fly better faster. SITL is the best place to improve ARDUPilot as crashes don’t damage our vehicles…
