Speed controller bandwidth
Speed controller bandwidth, in Hz. Higher values result in faster speed and current rise times, but may result in overshoot and higher current consumption. For fixed-wing aircraft, this value should be less than 50 Hz; for multirotors, values up to 100 Hz may provide improvements in responsiveness.

Speed (RPM) controller gain
Speed (RPM) controller gain. Determines controller
aggressiveness; units are amp-seconds per radian. Systems with
higher rotational inertia (large props) will need gain increased;
systems with low rotational inertia (small props) may need gain
decreased. Higher values result in faster response, but may result
in oscillation and excessive overshoot. Lower values result in a
slower, smoother response.

Motor current limit in amps. This determines the maximum
current controller setpoint, as well as the maximum allowable
current setpoint slew rate. This value should generally be set to

This is the best climb rate that the aircraft can achieve with the throttle set to THR_MAX and the airspeed set to the default value. For electric aircraft make sure this number can be achieved towards the end of flight when the battery voltage has reduced. The setting of this parameter can be checked by commanding a positive altitude change of 100m in loiter, RTL or guided mode. If the throttle required to climb is close to THR_MAX and the aircraft is maintaining airspeed, then this parameter is set correctly. If the airspeed starts to reduce, then the parameter is set to high, and if the throttle demand required to climb and maintain speed is noticeably less than FW_THR_MAX, then either FW_T_CLMB_MAX should be increased or FW_THR_MAX reduced.

This parameter adjusts the amount of weighting that the pitch control applies to speed vs height errors. Setting it to 0.0 will cause the pitch control to control height and ignore speed errors. This will normally improve height accuracy but give larger airspeed errors. Setting it to 2.0 will cause the pitch control loop to control speed and ignore height errors. This will normally reduce airspeed errors, but give larger height errors. The default value of 1.0 allows the pitch control to simultaneously control height and speed.

Whether to scale throttle by battery power level
This compensates for voltage drop of the battery over time by attempting to normalize performance across the operating range of the battery. The fixed wing should constantly behave as if it was fully charged with reduced max thrust at lower battery percentages. i.e. if cruise speed is at 0.5 throttle at 100% battery, it will still be 0.5 at 60% battery.

Battery power level scaler
This compensates for voltage drop of the battery over time by attempting to normalize performance across the operating range of the battery. The copter should constantly behave as if it was fully charged with reduced max acceleration at lower battery percentages. i.e. if hover is at 0.5 throttle at 100% battery, it will still be 0.5 at 60% battery.

Run the FMU as a task to reduce latency
If true, the FMU will run in a separate task instead of on the work queue. Set this if low latency is required, for example for racing. This is a trade-off between RAM usage and latency: running as a task, it requires a separate stack and directly polls on the control topics, whereas running on the work queue, it runs at a fixed update rate.

Required temperature rise during thermal calibration
A temperature increase greater than this value is required during calibration. Calibration will complete for each sensor when the temperature increase above the starting temeprature exceeds the value set by SYS_CAL_TDEL. If the temperature rise is insufficient, the calibration will continue indefinitely and the board will need to be repowered to exit.
