shift_tracking module

Pilot nav shift variable to track an offset in navigation

Typical use is to Control a fixed-wing to use both GPS and local position (from Decawave modules for instance) to land it with precision or in a net.

Data are coming from POSITION_ESTIMATE ABI message.

See https://hal-enac.archives-ouvertes.fr/hal-01936955 for more information on UAV landing in a net.

Example for airframe file

Add to your firmware section:

1 <module name="shift_tracking"/>
