Complete Parameter List


This is a complete list of the parameters which can be set via the MAVLink protocol in the EEPROM of your autopilot to control vehicle behaviour. This list is automatically generated from the latest ardupilot source code, and so may contain parameters which are not yet in the stable released versions of the code.

The label for each option is specified in the order of rotations for that orientation. This option takes affect on next boot. After changing you will need to re-level your vehicle. Firmware versions 4.2 and prior can use a CUSTOM (100) rotation to set the AHRS_CUSTOM_ROLL/PIT/YAW angles for AHRS orientation. Later versions provide two general custom rotations which can be used, Custom 1 and Custom 2, with CUST_ROT1_ROLL/PIT/YAW or CUST_ROT2_ROLL/PIT/YAW angles.

You can select whatever checks you prefer by adding together the values of each check type to set this parameter. For example, to only allow arming when you have GPS lock and no RC failsafe you would set ARMING_CHECK to 72.

If set to 1 then the second (often the bottom) connector needs to be the stagnation pressure. If set to 2 (the default) then the airspeed driver will accept either order. The reason you may wish to specify the order is it will allow your airspeed sensor to detect if the aircraft is receiving excessive pressure on the static port compared to the stagnation port such as during a stall, which would otherwise be seen as a positive airspeed.

If you set this to 0 then the first (often the top) connector on the sensor needs to be the stagnation pressure (the pressure at the tip of the pitot tube). If set to 1 then the second (often the bottom) connector needs to be the stagnation pressure. If set to 2 (the default) then the airspeed driver will accept either order. The reason you may wish to specify the order is it will allow your airspeed sensor to detect if the aircraft is receiving excessive pressure on the static port compared to the stagnation port such as during a stall, which would otherwise be seen as a positive airspeed.

Skip airspeed offset calibration on startup for 2nd sensor (ARSPD2_SKIP_CAL)

Note: This parameter is for advanced users

This parameter allows you to skip airspeed offset calibration on startup, instead using the offset from the last calibration. This may be desirable if the offset variance between flights for your sensor is low and you want to avoid having to cover the pitot tube on each boot.

Note: This parameter is for advanced users

This determines when the filter will use the 3-axis magnetometer fusion model that estimates both earth and body fixed magnetic field states, when it will use a simpler magnetic heading fusion model that does not use magnetic field states and when it will use an alternative method of yaw determination to the magnetometer. The 3-axis magnetometer fusion is only suitable for use when the external magnetic field environment is stable. EK2_MAG_CAL = 0 uses heading fusion on ground, 3-axis fusion in-flight, and is the default setting for Plane users. EK2_MAG_CAL = 1 uses 3-axis fusion only when manoeuvring. EK2_MAG_CAL = 2 uses heading fusion at all times, is recommended if the external magnetic field is varying and is the default for rovers. EK2_MAG_CAL = 3 uses heading fusion on the ground and 3-axis fusion after the first in-air field and yaw reset has completed, and is the default for copters. EK2_MAG_CAL = 4 uses 3-axis fusion at all times. NOTE: The fusion mode can be forced to 2 for specific EKF cores using the EK2_MAG_MASK parameter. NOTE: limited operation without a magnetometer or any other yaw sensor is possible by setting all COMPASS_USE, COMPASS_USE2, COMPASS_USE3, etc parameters to 0 with COMPASS_ENABLE set to 1. If this is done, the EK2_GSF_RUN and EK2_GSF_USE masks must be set to the same as EK2_IMU_MASK.

Note: This parameter is for advanced users

This is a 1 byte bitmap controlling which GPS preflight checks are performed. Set to 0 to bypass all checks. Set to 255 perform all checks. Set to 3 to check just the number of satellites and HDoP. Set to 31 for the most rigorous checks that will still allow checks to pass when the copter is moving, eg launch from a boat.

Bitmask of active IMUs (EK2_IMU_MASK)

Note: This parameter is for advanced users

1 byte bitmap of IMUs to use in EKF2. A separate instance of EKF2 will be started for each IMU selected. Set to 1 to use the first IMU only (default), set to 2 to use the second IMU only, set to 3 to use the first and second IMU. Additional IMU's can be used up to a maximum of 6 if memory and processing resources permit. There may be insufficient memory and processing resources to run multiple instances. If this occurs EKF2 will fail to start.

This parameter enables specified cores to be used as a backup for flight into an environment with high levels of external magnetic interference which may degrade the EKF attitude estimate when using 3-axis magnetometer fusion. NOTE : Use of a different magnetometer fusion algorithm on different cores makes unwanted EKF core switches due to magnetometer errors more likely.

Bitmask control of EKF reference height correction (EK2_OGN_HGT_MASK)

Note: This parameter is for advanced users

When a height sensor other than GPS is used as the primary height source by the EKF, the position of the zero height datum is defined by that sensor and its frame of reference. If a GPS height measurement is also available, then the height of the WGS-84 height datum used by the EKF can be corrected so that the height returned by the getLLH() function is compensated for primary height sensor drift and change in datum over time. The first two bit positions control when the height datum will be corrected. Correction is performed using a Bayes filter and only operates when GPS quality permits. The third bit position controls where the corrections to the GPS reference datum are applied. Corrections can be applied to the local vertical position or to the reported EKF origin height (default).

Note: This parameter is for advanced users

A bitmask of which EKF2 instances run an independant EKF-GSF yaw estimator to provide a backup yaw estimate that doesn't rely on magnetometer data. This estimator uses IMU, GPS and, if available, airspeed data. EKF-GSF yaw estimator data for the primary EKF2 instance will be logged as GSF0 and GSF1 messages. Use of the yaw estimate generated by this algorithm is controlled by the EK2_GSF_USE_MASK and EK2_GSF_RST_MAX parameters. To run the EKF-GSF yaw estimator in ride-along and logging only, set EK2_GSF_USE_MASK to 0.

Note: This parameter is for advanced users

This enables EKF3. Enabling EKF3 only makes the maths run, it does not mean it will be used for flight control. To use it for flight control set AHRS_EKF_TYPE=3. A reboot or restart will need to be performed after changing the value of EK3_ENABLE for it to take effect.

GPS horizontal velocity measurement noise (m/s) (EK3_VELNE_M_NSE)

Note: This parameter is for advanced users

Note: This parameter is for advanced users

This sets a lower limit on the speed accuracy reported by the GPS receiver that is used to set vertical velocity observation noise. If the model of receiver used does not provide a speed accurcy estimate, then the parameter value will be used. Increasing it reduces the weighting of the GPS vertical velocity measurements.

GPS glitch radius gate size (m) (EK3_GLITCH_RAD)

Note: This parameter is for advanced users

This controls the maximum radial uncertainty in position between the value predicted by the filter and the value measured by the GPS before the filter position and velocity states are reset to the GPS. Making this value larger allows the filter to ignore larger GPS glitches but also means that non-GPS errors such as IMU and compass can create a larger error in position before the filter is forced back to the GPS position.

Altitude measurement noise (m) (EK3_ALT_M_NSE)

Note: This parameter is for advanced users

This is the RMS value of noise in the altitude measurement. Increasing it reduces the weighting of the baro measurement and will make the filter respond more slowly to baro measurement errors, but will make it more sensitive to GPS and accelerometer errors.

Note: This parameter is for advanced users

Note: This parameter is for advanced users

This determines when the filter will use the 3-axis magnetometer fusion model that estimates both earth and body fixed magnetic field states and when it will use a simpler magnetic heading fusion model that does not use magnetic field states. The 3-axis magnetometer fusion is only suitable for use when the external magnetic field environment is stable. EK3_MAG_CAL = 0 uses heading fusion on ground, 3-axis fusion in-flight, and is the default setting for Plane users. EK3_MAG_CAL = 1 uses 3-axis fusion only when manoeuvring. EK3_MAG_CAL = 2 uses heading fusion at all times, is recommended if the external magnetic field is varying and is the default for rovers. EK3_MAG_CAL = 3 uses heading fusion on the ground and 3-axis fusion after the first in-air field and yaw reset has completed, and is the default for copters. EK3_MAG_CAL = 4 uses 3-axis fusion at all times. EK3_MAG_CAL = 5 uses an external yaw sensor with simple heading fusion. NOTE : Use of simple heading magnetometer fusion makes vehicle compass calibration and alignment errors harder for the EKF to detect which reduces the sensitivity of the Copter EKF failsafe algorithm. NOTE: The fusion mode can be forced to 2 for specific EKF cores using the EK3_MAG_MASK parameter. EK3_MAG_CAL = 6 uses an external yaw sensor with fallback to compass when the external sensor is not available if we are flying. NOTE: The fusion mode can be forced to 2 for specific EKF cores using the EK3_MAG_MASK parameter. NOTE: limited operation without a magnetometer or any other yaw sensor is possible by setting all COMPASS_USE, COMPASS_USE2, COMPASS_USE3, etc parameters to 0 and setting COMPASS_ENABLE to 0. If this is done, the EK3_GSF_RUN and EK3_GSF_USE masks must be set to the same as EK3_IMU_MASK. A yaw angle derived from IMU and GPS velocity data using a Gaussian Sum Filter (GSF) will then be used to align the yaw when flight commences and there is sufficient movement.

Magnetometer measurement gate size (EK3_MAG_I_GATE)

Note: This parameter is for advanced users

Note: This parameter is for advanced users

Set to 31 for the most rigorous checks that will still allow checks to pass when the copter is moving, eg launch from a boat.

Bitmask of active IMUs (EK3_IMU_MASK)

Note: This parameter is for advanced users

1 byte bitmap of IMUs to use in EKF3. A separate instance of EKF3 will be started for each IMU selected. Set to 1 to use the first IMU only (default), set to 2 to use the second IMU only, set to 3 to use the first and second IMU. Additional IMU's can be used up to a maximum of 6 if memory and processing resources permit. There may be insufficient memory and processing resources to run multiple instances. If this occurs EKF3 will fail to start.

GPS accuracy check scaler (%) (EK3_CHECK_SCALE)

Note: This parameter is for advanced users

This scales the thresholds that are used to check GPS accuracy before it is used by the EKF. A value of 100 is the default. Values greater than 100 increase and values less than 100 reduce the maximum GPS error the EKF will accept. A value of 200 will double the allowable GPS error.

Non-GPS operation position uncertainty (m) (EK3_NOAID_M_NSE)

Note: This parameter is for advanced users

This sets the amount of position variation that the EKF allows for when operating without external measurements (eg GPS or optical flow). Increasing this parameter makes the EKF attitude estimate less sensitive to vehicle manoeuvres but more sensitive to IMU errors.

Bitmask controlling sidelip angle fusion (EK3_BETA_MASK)

Note: This parameter is for advanced users

1 byte bitmap controlling use of sideslip angle fusion for estimation of non wind states during operation of 'fly forward' vehicle types such as fixed wing planes. By assuming that the angle of sideslip is small, the wind velocity state estimates are corrected whenever the EKF is not dead reckoning (e.g. has an independent velocity or position sensor such as GPS). This behaviour is on by default and cannot be disabled. When the EKF is dead reckoning, the wind states are used as a reference, enabling use of the small angle of sideslip assumption to correct non wind velocity states (eg attitude, velocity, position, etc) and improve navigation accuracy. This behaviour is on by default and cannot be disabled. The behaviour controlled by this parameter is the use of the small angle of sideslip assumption to correct non wind velocity states when the EKF is NOT dead reckoning. This is primarily of benefit to reduce the buildup of yaw angle errors during straight and level flight without a yaw sensor (e.g. magnetometer or dual antenna GPS yaw) provided aerobatic flight maneuvers with large sideslip angles are not performed. The 'always' option might be used where the yaw sensor is intentionally not fitted or disabled. The 'WhenNoYawSensor' option might be used if a yaw sensor is fitted, but protection against in-flight failure and continual rejection by the EKF is desired. For vehicles operated within visual range of the operator performing frequent turning maneuvers, setting this parameter is unnecessary.

Note: This parameter is for advanced users

Range finder can be used as the primary height source when below this percentage of its maximum range (see RNGFNDx_MAX_CM) and the primary height source is Baro or GPS (see EK3_SRCx_POSZ).

This parameter enables specified cores to be used as a backup for flight into an environment with high levels of external magnetic interference which may degrade the EKF attitude estimate when using 3-axis magnetometer fusion. NOTE : Use of a different magnetometer fusion algorithm on different cores makes unwanted EKF core switches due to magnetometer errors more likely.

Bitmask control of EKF reference height correction (EK3_OGN_HGT_MASK)

Note: This parameter is for advanced users

When a height sensor other than GPS is used as the primary height source by the EKF, the position of the zero height datum is defined by that sensor and its frame of reference. If a GPS height measurement is also available, then the height of the WGS-84 height datum used by the EKF can be corrected so that the height returned by the getLLH() function is compensated for primary height sensor drift and change in datum over time. The first two bit positions control when the height datum will be corrected. Correction is performed using a Bayes filter and only operates when GPS quality permits.

This estimator uses IMU, GPS and, if available, airspeed data. EKF-GSF yaw estimator data for the primary EKF3 instance will be logged as GSF0 and GSF1 messages. Use of the yaw estimate generated by this algorithm is controlled by the EK3_GSF_USE_MASK and EK3_GSF_RST_MAX parameters. To run the EKF-GSF yaw estimator in ride-along and logging only, set EK3_GSF_USE to 0.

Note: This parameter is for advanced users

A bitmask of which EKF3 instances will use the output from the EKF-GSF yaw estimator that has been turned on by the EK3_GSF_RUN_MASK parameter.

Note: This parameter is for advanced users

These options control the affinity between sensor instances and EKF cores

Ballistic coefficient for X axis drag (EK3_DRAG_BCOEF_X)

Note: This parameter is for advanced users

Ratio of mass to drag coefficient measured along the X body axis. This parameter enables estimation of wind drift for vehicles with bluff bodies and without propulsion forces in the X and Y direction (eg multicopters). The drag produced by this effect scales with speed squared. Set to a postive value > 1.0 to enable. A starting value is the mass in Kg divided by the frontal area. The predicted drag from the rotors is specified separately by the EK3_DRAG_MCOEF parameter.

Ballistic coefficient for Y axis drag (EK3_DRAG_BCOEF_Y)

Note: This parameter is for advanced users

The predicted drag from the rotors is specified separately by the EK3_DRAG_MCOEF parameter.

Observation noise for drag acceleration (EK3_DRAG_M_NSE)

Note: This parameter is for advanced users

This sets the amount of noise used when fusing X and Y acceleration as an observation that enables esitmation of wind velocity for multi-rotor vehicles. This feature is enabled by the EK3_DRAG_BCOEF_X and EK3_DRAG_BCOEF_Y parameters

Momentum coefficient for propeller drag (EK3_DRAG_MCOEF)

Note: This parameter is for advanced users

This parameter is used to predict the drag produced by the rotors when flying a multi-copter, enabling estimation of wind drift. The drag produced by this effect scales with speed not speed squared and is produced because some of the air velocity normal to the rotors axis of rotation is lost when passing through the rotor disc which changes the momentum of the airflow causing drag. For unducted rotors the effect is roughly proportional to the area of the propeller blades when viewed side on and changes with different propellers. It is higher for ducted rotors. For example if flying at 15 m/s at sea level conditions produces a rotor induced drag acceleration of 1.5 m/s/s, then EK3_DRAG_MCOEF would be set to 0.1 = (1.5/15.0). Set EK3_MCOEF to a postive value to enable wind estimation using this drag effect. To account for the drag produced by the body which scales with speed squared, see documentation for the EK3_DRAG_BCOEF_X and EK3_DRAG_BCOEF_Y parameters.

Setting this to 3 will target the highest energy peak that is higher in frequency than the highest energy peak. Setting this to 4 will target the highest energy peak on the roll axis only and only the roll frequency will be used (some vehicles have a much more pronounced peak on roll). Setting this to 5 will target the highest energy peak on the pitch axis only and only the pitch frequency will be used (some vehicles have a much more pronounced peak on roll).

For example, rpm sensor data is required to measure heli motor RPM. Therefore the reference value can be used to scale the RPM sensor to the rotor RPM.

Harmonic Notch Filter dynamic frequency tracking mode (INS_HNTC2_MODE)

Note: This parameter is for advanced users

Harmonic Notch Filter dynamic frequency tracking mode. Dynamic updates can be throttle, RPM sensor, ESC telemetry or dynamic FFT based. Throttle-based updates should only be used with multicopters.

Harmonic Notch Filter options (INS_HNTC2_OPTS)

Note: This parameter is for advanced users

Harmonic Notch Filter options. Triple and double-notches can provide deeper attenuation across a wider bandwidth with reduced latency than single notches and are suitable for larger aircraft. Dynamic harmonics attaches a harmonic notch to each detected noise frequency instead of simply being multiples of the base frequency, in the case of FFT it will attach notches to each of three detected noise peaks, in the case of ESC it will attach notches to each of four motor RPM values. Loop rate update changes the notch center frequency at the scheduler loop rate rather than at the default of 200Hz. If both double and triple notches are specified only double notches will take effect.

Throttle notch min freqency ratio (INS_HNTC2_FM_RAT)

Note: This parameter is for advanced users

The minimum ratio below the configured frequency to take throttle based notch filters when flying at a throttle level below the reference throttle. Note that lower frequency notch filters will have more phase lag. If you want throttle based notch filtering to be effective at a throttle up to 30% below the configured notch frequency then set this parameter to 0.7. The default of 1.0 means the notch will not go below the frequency in the FREQ parameter.

INS_HNTCH_ Parameters

Harmonic Notch Filter enable (INS_HNTCH_ENABLE)

Note: This parameter is for advanced users

Harmonic Notch Filter enable

Harmonic Notch Filter base frequency (INS_HNTCH_FREQ)

Note: This parameter is for advanced users

Harmonic Notch Filter base center frequency in Hz. This should be set at most half the backend gyro rate (which is typically 1Khz). For helicopters using RPM sensor to dynamically set the notch frequency, use this parameter to provide a lower limit to the dynamic notch filter. Recommend setting it to half the operating rotor speed in Hz.

Harmonic Notch Filter bandwidth (INS_HNTCH_BW)

Note: This parameter is for advanced users

Harmonic Notch Filter bandwidth in Hz. This is typically set to half the base frequency. The ratio of base frequency to bandwidth determines the notch quality factor and is fixed across harmonics.

Harmonic Notch Filter attenuation (INS_HNTCH_ATT)

Note: This parameter is for advanced users

Harmonic Notch Filter attenuation in dB. Values greater than 40dB will typically produce a hard notch rather than a modest attenuation of motor noise.

Harmonic Notch Filter harmonics (INS_HNTCH_HMNCS)

Note: This parameter is for advanced users

Bitmask of harmonic frequencies to apply Harmonic Notch Filter to. This option takes effect on the next reboot. A value of 0 disables this filter. The first harmonic refers to the base frequency.

Harmonic Notch Filter reference value (INS_HNTCH_REF)

Note: This parameter is for advanced users

A reference value of zero disables dynamic updates on the Harmonic Notch Filter and a positive value enables dynamic updates on the Harmonic Notch Filter. For throttle-based scaling, this parameter is the reference value associated with the specified frequency to facilitate frequency scaling of the Harmonic Notch Filter. For RPM and ESC telemetry based tracking, this parameter is set to 1 to enable the Harmonic Notch Filter using the RPM sensor or ESC telemetry set to measure rotor speed. The sensor data is converted to Hz automatically for use in the Harmonic Notch Filter. This reference value may also be used to scale the sensor data, if required. For example, rpm sensor data is required to measure heli motor RPM. Therefore the reference value can be used to scale the RPM sensor to the rotor RPM.

Note that lower frequency notch filters will have more phase lag. If you want throttle based notch filtering to be effective at a throttle up to 30% below the configured notch frequency then set this parameter to 0.7. The default of 1.0 means the notch will not go below the frequency in the FREQ parameter.

LOG Parameters

AP_Logger Backend Storage type (LOG_BACKEND_TYPE)

Bitmap of what Logger backend types to enable. Block-based logging is available on SITL and boards with dataflash chips. Multiple backends can be selected.

Maximum AP_Logger File and Block Backend buffer size (in kilobytes) (LOG_FILE_BUFSIZE)

The File and Block backends use a buffer to store data before writing to the block device. Raising this value may reduce "gaps" in your SD card logging. This buffer size may be reduced depending on available memory. PixHawk requires at least 4 kilobytes. Maximum value available here is 64 kilobytes.

Enable logging while disarmed (LOG_DISARMED)

If LOG_DISARMED is set to 1 then logging will be enabled while disarmed. This can make for very large logfiles but can help a lot when tracking down startup issues

Enable logging of information needed for Replay (LOG_REPLAY)

If LOG_REPLAY is set to 1 then the EKF2 state estimator will log detailed information needed for diagnosing problems with the Kalman filter. It is suggested that you also raise LOG_FILE_BUFSIZE to give more buffer space for logging and use a high quality microSD card to ensure no sensor data is lost

Stop logging to current file on disarm (LOG_FILE_DSRMROT)

When set, the current log file is closed when the vehicle is disarmed. If LOG_DISARMED is set then a fresh log will be opened. Applies to the File and Block logging backends.

Maximum AP_Logger MAVLink Backend buffer size (LOG_MAV_BUFSIZE)

Note: This parameter is for advanced users

Maximum amount of memory to allocate to AP_Logger-over-mavlink

Timeout before giving up on file writes (LOG_FILE_TIMEOUT)

Old logs on the SD card will be deleted to maintain this amount of free space (LOG_FILE_MB_FREE)

Set this such that the free space is larger than your largest typical flight log

Maximum logging rate for file backend (LOG_FILE_RATEMAX)

This sets the maximum rate that streaming log messages will be logged to the file backend. A value of zero means that rate limiting is disabled.

Maximum logging rate for mavlink backend (LOG_MAV_RATEMAX)

This sets the maximum rate that streaming log messages will be logged to the mavlink backend. A value of zero means that rate limiting is disabled.

Maximum logging rate for block backend (LOG_BLK_RATEMAX)

This sets the maximum rate that streaming log messages will be logged to the mavlink backend. A value of zero means that rate limiting is disabled.
