Sooo - After many months of fiddling around with Openplotter/Pypilot, various motor controllers, lots of cheap but bad IMU's, finally - A working autopilot, that receives and follows a course from OpenCPN. Still on the wishlist is a simple UPS/ battery backup so the RPI doesn't lose power when I crank the engine, and I still cant get the Pypilot OpenCPN plugin to work whatever i do but minor stuff.
Such a nice evening to not have to steer the old Bayliner: https://youtu.be/mLCbrvlmCdo
- Thanks to all of you that pointed me in the right direction (no pun intended)
