Within a week or two I will be finishing up the first part of my openplotter installation. I then want to move on to pypilot. Forgive me as I am a newb to openplotter and raspberry pi. My boat has an old autopilot that doesn’t work very well so last year I disconnected that and installed a garage door type of remote from amazon that allowed me to remotely steer my boat by simply supplying 12 v to one side or the other of the hydraulic pump. This was the best damn 15 dollar upgrade I ever made! So to get started with pypilot I understand I need an mpu-9255? Correct? Then what exactly do I need to drive the motor? Can someone give me some recommendations? Do I need any other hardware? That is all for now. Just want to get everything on order. Thanks
