I’ve just released plane 4.3.1 stable. This is a minor release with a few important fixes:
- fixed build with gcc 11.3
- fixed random number generator in lua core
- scale VTOL angle P with airspeed in quadplane back-transition
- added support for implementing AUX functions in lua scripts
- fixed BMI085 accel scaling
- fixed KSXT NMEA parsing affecting position resolution
- fixed race condition in TECS control leading to ‘nod’ in forward transition
- allow for expansion of notch filters to fix notch of fwd motors in quadplanes
- added logging of TECS target alt
- fixed EKF3 altitude discrepancy with GPS or baro alt change on startup
- allow auto mode sequencing to land in a fence breach
The most noticeable change will be for users flying medium to large quadplanes (say over 30 kg). There was a problem with pitch oscillations in the back transition for auto landing on some aircraft. That should be fixed in this release, making the auto landings a lot smoother.
Happy flying!
