Worked on the ArduPilot/ardupilot repository to enhance drone navigation reliability and configurability. Addressed a waypoint speed tuning issue in the Copter module by ensuring speeds are interpreted in meters per second, which reduced waypoint overshoot and improved mission accuracy. Introduced PID unit support and expanded known_units entries in the AC_AttitudeControl library, with corresponding updates in the Tools module, to streamline unit handling and simplify tuning for operators. Utilized C++ and Python to implement these changes, applying expertise in control systems, embedded systems, and unit testing. The work demonstrated a methodical approach to improving cross-module consistency and operational precision.
