Release notes for UgCS v.4.1 (117)

Changed:

• For Ardupilot and PX4 to increases GPS precision UgCS uses MISSION_ITEM_INT mavlink message instead of MISSION_ITEM.
• For Ardupilot terrain-following mode with rangefinder:

1. Introduced the ability to upload a route with “Rangefinder“ altitude modes while the rangefinder isn't connected to the drone. If the rangefinder is in a bad health state or isn't connected, the warning message appears in the vehicle log. Don't fly routes without a good health rangefinder, it can cause the drone to crash!‍
2. To enhance low-altitude flight safety the rangefinder is now also used between a non-rangefinder segment and the next adjacent rangefinder segment.
3. The warning “For safety reason, it's recommended to reduce speed to <V> or increase flight height to <H>.“ is displayed in the vehicle log if (from our experience) the speed on some parts of the flight path is not safe.

Removed:

• For Ardupilot to enhance low-altitude flight safety using splines in the routes with rangefinder segments now prohibited.
  

Fixed:

• Upload of route to ArduPlane.

Uploading route to ArduPlane failed due to a fence uploading error. Now UgCS doesn't upload fence to ArduPlane vehicles. Fence functionality will be reworked in next versions.

• Upload of more than 99 points to Parrot ANAFI.
• Incorrect heading while flying facade scan: sometimes the vehicle haven't faced the facade during executing a facade scan segment. It depended on the previous segment. Now the vehicle always faces the facade and does not depend on previous segment's azimuth.
• Minor bug fixes.
