TT Helicopter GPS Autopilot AI MK2 Full Avionics Module

Say hello to the TT Helicopter GPS Autopilot AI MK2 Module, so smart it might* say hello back.

This unit does everything. Literally connect it to a seat, the engines and rotors, altimeter, vertical distance sensor and keypads and buttons as required. This Autopilot / Autonomous module has been built to be as easy as possible to integrate, not neccesarily as small as possible. Therefore each connector is on the outside of the module, and each connector has a nearby marking stating what it is for.

What this autopilot will do is fly to one of two specified waypoints, at the specified cruise altitude (at either above sea level or ground level, the autopilot will work that out itself) and then land at that waypoint.

Inputs:

"X" "Y", "A" - X & Y co-ordinates for waypoint A (2x number)
"X" "Y", "B" - X & Y co-ordinates for waypoint B (2x number)
"AB" - Select A/B input (1x on/off)
"ALT" - (on waypoint side) Cruise Altitude (1x number)
"ALT" - (on controls side) Altimeter (1x number)
"V.DIST" - Vertical Distance (1x number - connect to a distance sensor under your helicopter)
"PI, RO, YA, TH", "IN" - Seat inputs (4x number - Pitch, Roll, Yaw, Throttle)
"EN" - autopilot on (1x on/off)
"HV" - autohover (1x on/off)

Outputs:
"PI, RO, YA, TH", "OUT" - control outputs, connect directly to rotors & engines.

Size:
10 long, 5 wide, 3 tall.


instructions:
click "SELECTION GRID" on the top menu.
click "LOAD CONTENT" on the left side menu.
load this file.
it will now be onscreen, drag using the arrows around the object into the position you want to place it.
press "PASTE"
now click "SECTION GRID" again or another option around it to get out of this mode.
connect all the relevant connections. you MUST connect a distance sensor facing downward for this specific autopilot design, as it helps the autopilot avoid obstacles and slows landing descent.
connect the A output of keypads to the X inputs of A or B waypoint inputs. connect the B output of keypads to the Y inputs of A or B waypoint inputs.

hopefully, you should now have a working autopilot fitted to your helicopter with relative ease!

Any features you would like to see on MK3 autopilot let me know. I had a few ideas for extra features for this autopilot and tested them, including flying backwards, using roll to improve landing, etc, but found this combination was probably the best at the time.

Let me know if you build any vehicles with this autopilot, and I'll add it to this list below!

*This autopilot isn't quite smart enough to talk back to the operator, yet.
