Abstract:
Some embodiments are directed to a system for use with a vehicle, the system including control circuits for controlling an operation of the vehicle, each of the control circuits implementing autopilot coefficients. The system further includes a sensor that is configured to detect control circuits operating in an untuned or incorrectly tuned state from the control circuits; an electronic switch that is configured to isolate the control circuits in the untuned or incorrectly tuned state from other control circuits; a tuning circuit that is configured to determine tuned values of the autopilot coefficients corresponding to the control circuits in the untuned or incorrectly tuned state; the tuned values of the autopilot coefficients enabling the control circuits to operate in a tuned state; and a memory to store the tuned values of the autopilot coefficients, wherein the electronic switch is further configured to connect the control circuits in the tuned state to the other control circuits.
