We are missing the following motor diagrams:

[x] BiCopter
[ ] Quad BetaFlight X
[ ] Quad DJI X
[ ] Quad CW X
[ ] Hexa CW X
[ ] Octa CW X
[ ] OctaQuad CW x
[ ] Quad BetaFlight X Reversed (PR:https://github.com/ArduPilot/ardupilot/pull/13266)

add reverse tricopter

IamPete1 commented 5 years ago

to expand, Motor 1 and 2 remain on the right and left respectively as with standard tricopter. the tail motor 4 is now at the front https://github.com/ArduPilot/ardupilot/pull/10846

IamPete1 commented 5 years ago

not copter but we should also add diagrams for the rover omni frames

rmackay9 commented 5 years ago

@IamPete1, we have at least some of the rover omni frame here I think: http://ardupilot.org/rover/docs/rover-motor-and-servo-connections.html#omni-vehicles .. ah, but they're missing from this very similar page: http://ardupilot.org/rover/docs/rover-motor-and-servo-configuration.html#omni-vehicles.. but then again we don't have the motor diagrams for the other vehicle types on this page either..

IamPete1 commented 5 years ago

I was looking at the second page, so missed them completely, in any-case were missing the 4 inline mecanum wheels that I think we support?

rmackay9 commented 5 years ago

@IamPete1, no, I think that's one of the existing omni vehicles... maybe the OmniX. I'm not totally sure but I don't remember us having to make any code changes for the person that got the omni rover working.

@rmackay9 if you can hand sketch, and send me a photo, I will work on these....could save us some $$ right?

rmackay9 commented 4 years ago

FYI the DJIX configuration came up today in this support thread: https://discuss.ardupilot.org/t/copter-4-0-1-released/51505/19

rmackay9 commented 4 years ago

This is the link to the code that defines the configurations: https://github.com/ArduPilot/ardupilot/blob/master/libraries/AP_Motors/AP_MotorsMatrix.cpp#L498
