Half a second is a good start value and fits for most average systems.

Maximum Yaw Rate This limits the maximum yaw rate the controller will output (in degrees per second). Setting a value of zero disables the limit. 0.0 90.0 deg/s Complementary filter "omega" parameter for height This is the cross-over frequency (in radians/second) of the complementary filter used to fuse vertical acceleration and barometric height to obtain an estimate of height rate and height. Increasing this frequency weights the solution more towards use of the barometer, whilst reducing it weights the solution more towards use of the accelerometer data. Height rate FF factor Height rate P factor Integrator gain This is the integrator gain on the control loop. Increasing this gain increases the speed at which speed and height offsets are trimmed out, but reduces damping and increases overshoot. Pitch damping factor This is the damping gain for the pitch demand loop. Increase to add damping to correct for oscillations in height. The default value of 0.0 will work well provided the pitch to servo controller has been tuned properly. Roll -> Throttle feedforward Increasing this gain turn increases the amount of throttle that will be used to compensate for the additional drag created by turning. Ideally this should be set to approximately 10 x the extra sink rate in m/s created by a 45 degree bank turn. Increase this gain if the aircraft initially loses energy in turns and reduce if the aircraft initially gains energy in turns. Efficient high aspect-ratio aircraft (eg powered sailplanes) can use a lower value, whereas inefficient low aspect-ratio models (eg delta wings) can use a higher value. Maximum descent rate This sets the maximum descent rate that the controller will use. If this value is too large, the aircraft can over-speed on descent. This should be set to a value that can be achieved without exceeding the lower pitch angle limit and without over-speeding the aircraft. Minimum descent rate This is the sink rate of the aircraft with the throttle set to THR_MIN and flown at the same airspeed as used to measure FW_T_CLMB_MAX. Speed <--> Altitude priority 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. Note to Glider Pilots - set this parameter to 2.0 (The glider will adjust its pitch angle to maintain airspeed, ignoring changes in height). Complementary filter "omega" parameter for speed This is the cross-over frequency (in radians/second) of the complementary filter used to fuse longitudinal acceleration and airspeed to obtain an improved airspeed estimate. Increasing this frequency weights the solution more towards use of the arispeed sensor, whilst reducing it weights the solution more towards use of the accelerometer data. Speed rate P factor TECS Throttle time constant This is the time constant of the TECS throttle control algorithm (in seconds). Smaller values make it faster to respond, larger values make it slower to respond. Throttle damping factor This is the damping gain for the throttle demand loop. Increase to add damping to correct for oscillations in speed and height. TECS time constant This is the time constant of the TECS control algorithm (in seconds). Smaller values make it faster to respond, larger values make it slower to respond. Maximum vertical acceleration This is the maximum vertical acceleration (in metres/second square) either up or down that the controller will use to correct speed or height errors. The default value of 7 m/s/s (equivalent to +- 0.7 g) allows for reasonably aggressive pitch changes if required to recover from under-speed conditions. Loiter time The amount of time in seconds the system should do open loop loiter and wait for gps recovery before it goes into flight termination. 0.0 seconds Open loop loiter pitch Pitch in degrees during the open loop loiter -30.0 30.0 deg Open loop loiter roll Roll in degrees during the open loop loiter 0.0 30.0 deg Open loop loiter thrust Thrust value which is set during the open loop loiter 0.0 1.0 Geofence altitude mode Select which altitude reference should be used 0 = WGS84, 1 = AMSL 0 1 Geofence counter limit Set how many subsequent position measurements outside of the fence are needed before geofence violation is triggered -1 10 Max horizontal distance in meters Set to > 0 to activate RTL if horizontal distance to home exceeds this value. Max vertical distance in meters Set to > 0 to activate RTL if vertical distance to home exceeds this value. Geofence mode 0 = disabled, 1 = geofence file only, 2 = max horizontal (GF_MAX_HOR_DIST) and vertical (GF_MAX_VER_DIST) distances, 3 = both 0 3 Geofence source Select which position source should be used. Selecting GPS instead of global position makes sure that there is no dependence on the position estimator 0 = global position, 1 = GPS 0 1 Climbout Altitude difference If the altitude error exceeds this parameter, the system will climb out with maximum throttle and minimum airspeed until it is closer than this distance to the desired altitude. Mostly used for takeoff waypoints / modes. Set to zero to disable climbout mode (not recommended). L1 damping Damping factor for L1 control. 0.6 0.9 L1 period This is the L1 distance and defines the tracking point ahead of the aircraft its following. A value of 25 meters works for most aircraft. Shorten slowly during tuning until response is sharp without oscillation. 1.0 100.0 Landing slope angle Landing flare altitude (relative to landing altitude) meter Landing heading hold horizontal distance FW_LND_HVIRT Landing throttle limit altitude (relative landing altitude) Default of -1.0f lets the system default to applying throttle limiting at 2/3 of the flare altitude. meter Enable or disable usage of terrain estimate during landing 0: disabled, 1: enabled Positive pitch limit The maximum positive pitch the controller will output. 0.0 60.0 degrees Negative pitch limit The minimum negative pitch the controller will output. -60.0 0.0 degrees Controller roll limit The maximum roll the controller will output. 0.0 degrees Cruise throttle This is the throttle setting required to achieve the desired cruise speed. Most airframes have a value of 0.5-0.7. 0.0 1.0 Throttle limit value before flare This throttle value will be set as throttle limit at FW_LND_TLALT, before arcraft will flare. Throttle limit max This is the maximum throttle % that can be used by the controller. For overpowered aircraft, this should be reduced to a value that provides sufficient thrust to climb at the maximum pitch angle PTCH_MAX. Throttle limit min This is the minimum throttle % that can be used by the controller. For electric aircraft this will normally be set to zero, but can be set to a small non-zero value if a folding prop is fitted to prevent the prop from folding and unfolding repeatedly in-flight or to provide some aerodynamic drag from a turning prop to improve the descent rate. For aircraft with internal combustion engine this parameter should be set for desired idle rpm. Throttle max slew rate Maximum slew rate for the commanded throttle 0.0 1.0 Maximum climb rate 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. Airspeed max Maximum airspeed allowed to trigger a land (m/s) Fixedwing max horizontal velocity Maximum horizontal velocity allowed to trigger a land (m/s) Fixedwing max climb rate Maximum vertical velocity allowed to trigger a land (m/s up and down) Multicopter max rotation Maximum allowed around each axis to trigger a land (degrees per second) Multicopter max throttle Maximum actuator output on throttle before triggering a land Multicopter max horizontal velocity Maximum horizontal velocity allowed to trigger a land (m/s) Multicopter max climb rate Maximum vertical velocity allowed to trigger a land (m/s up and down) Enable launch detection 0 1 Catapult accelerometer theshold LAUN_CAT_A * LAUN_CAT_T serves as threshold to trigger launch detection. 0 Motor delay Delay between starting attitude control and powering up the throttle (giving throttle control to the controller) Before this timespan is up the throttle will be set to LAUN_THR_PRE, set to 0 to deactivate 0 seconds Maximum pitch before the throttle is powered up (during motor delay phase) This is an extra limit for the maximum pitch which is imposed in the phase before the throttle turns on. This allows to limit the maximum pitch angle during a bungee launch (make the launch less steep). 0 45 deg Catapult time theshold LAUN_CAT_A * LAUN_CAT_T serves as threshold to trigger launch detection. 0 Throttle setting while detecting launch The throttle is set to this value while the system is waiting for the take-off. 0 1 MAVLink component ID Forward external setpoint messages If set to 1 incomming external setpoint messages will be directly forwarded to the controllers if in offboard control mode MAVLink system ID MAVLink type Use/Accept HIL GPS message (even if not in HIL mode) If set to 1 incomming HIL GPS messages are parsed.
