► the mainboard can now send and receive Serial data from the sideboards
► heavy refactored the `main.c`. It was becoming too large to manage... Therefore, `util.c` and `util.h` was created
► added new functionality for `VARIANT_HOVERCAR` and variants with `CONTROL_ADC` in general:
- ADC limits auto-calibration mode (long press of the power button) - calibration will not be lost at power-off
- Max Current and Max Speed adjustment mode (long press followed by a short press of the power button) - calibration will not be lost at power-off
- added one sideboard functionality:
- LEDs are used to display battery level, Motor Enable, Errors, Reverse driving, Braking.
- Photo sensors are used as push buttons: One for changing Control Mode, One for Activating/Deactivating the Field Weakening on the fly
Major:
- Issue #3: added raw ADC1, ADC2 values to the setScopeChannel
- Issue #4: added functionality for joystick control. Middle resting potis are now supported (by default it is enabled)
- Issue #6: implemented that board does not power-off after a software reset due to flashing
- added Rate constraints for Input target for smoother response
Minor:
- added 2 beep sound when motors get enabled
- minor bugfixes
The follwing were converted to fixed-point
- battery voltage
- board temperature
- filters for steer and speed
- mixer calculation
Starting from this moment, the firmware is floating point free, meaning it runs more efficiently.
