Autopilot Flight Addon (Helicopter)

This requires the master AP subassembly from Stevob21:
LUA Interactive Map/Plotter (Autopilot)

This Chip adds the inputs and outputs required for helicopter flight. For Yaw use Steering on the master chip, the input and output for Throttle on the master chip is not used. When autopilot is set, it will keep your height.

Example for use: Helicopter with Autopilot Flight Addon



Parameters
*Abort on Pitch, Lift, Roll input: Input will cancel AP (for Yaw use Abort on Steering on the master chip)
*Altitude Correction Factor: Inverse of maximum difference from set altitude (eg. 0.1 for +/- 10 meters)
*Tilt Value while travelling: Tilt (pitch sensor value, not pitch!) of the helicopter when travelling with AP
*Auto lift if altitude below: Helicopter will lift to given altitude (parameter below) when AP enabled below this altitude. This will enable you to start the AP at the ground.
*Auto lift to altitude: Travel altitude if Auto lift used (see above)

This addon chip adds the following functionality to the master chip
*Input and Output for Roll
*Input and Output for Pitch
*Input and Output for Lift
*Inputs for Pitch and Roll tilt sensors
*Input for Altimeter
