Good Evening All,
I represent a design team at Virginia Tech that is currently working towards fabricating a custom QuadPlane for a competition we participate in. Our competition relies heavily on waypoint accuracy and obstacle avoidance, thus we have a question regarding craft yaw control during transitions.
The way our missions and flights are set up, we require the craft to yaw using the multirotor before flying to the next waypoint. After playing around with a simulator for countless hours, I was unable to find a param that allows for this ability. Ideally, we would like that after loitering at a waypoint, the craft yaws to face the next waypoint (similar to in ArduCopter) before transitioning to a fixed-wing. This would allow for the craft to have a very small “turning radius” and allow for us to fly tight maneuvers.
If anyone can point me in the direction of getting this working, any help would be appreciated. Also, if this is currently not capable with the current firmware - I highly request that a parameter to be added as it would aid us heavily in our current and all future crafts.
Thanks in advance for the help!
