[Paparazzi-devel] Flight Plan for Soaring

[Reto Büttner]

Hi guys,

for autonomous soaring I want the plane to circle, as long as it is in
an updraft. Will a statement similar to the following work?

<circle radius="50" until="estimator_vz < 0.0" wp="WP" throttle="0.0"
pitch="-5" vmode="throttle"/>

Does the variable estimator_vz exist?

Has someone in the paparazzi community already programmed a flight
plan for autonomous soaring?

Cheers,
Reto
