Hard over time & compass calibration

If you command the servo directly like that, it will timeout if you do not continuously send commands.  Otherwise you could command in position mode (if rudder feedback) or possibly just initiate a tack if that makes more sense.
I was curious to know if my hard over time was within specs. I have an adjustable hydraulic pump, so in case my rudder moves too fast/slowly, I could make some adjustments there.
I do have rudder feedback, so I could try the issue the rudder position command. 
Could you please provide the correct command (something similar to "pypilot_client position.command=-30"?)

I have also made several attempts to build the Tinypilot from the current code. My current setup is an old image (tinypilot_2021_11_16.img.xz), from which I try to pull and build the code. The pulling works fine (using instructions from the wiki (Upgrading tinypilot remotely)), and the build completes without any issues. However there is no working web interface when I try to run/reboot with the updated code. Rolling back to the original build works fine. 
I think i tried with the latest image (23_10_20_beta), but if i remember correctly, I got similar issues with that one.
You were mentioning a new (working?) image should be available soon. Any chance that "soon" is soon?

Thanks again, Sean, for this marvelous product! It is really great!
