Hi Sean, I've not had a chance to apply the updates yet but tried again with the current version. I'm still confused about the conflicting advice. Earlier in the thread you suggested using "sv -v d pypilot" to take the pilot down before changing the pypilot.conf file.
Now the advice is the opposite:
Unfortunately neither seems to be true. No matter what I do, the bad settings just keep coming back from the motor controller and there seems to be no way to send the corrected settings TO the motor controller.
I spent a couple of hours trying to get the python scripts for calibration etc. running my my macbook in case I can use those, got a lot of the denpendencies installed but got stuck on a couple of the dependencies and ran out of time. Currently the only way I have to set the slew settings is to edit the file manually because none of the available tools seem able to do that. Maybe easier to try and get qemu set up running ubuntu but I just don't have the time at the moment.
I've not had time to apply the latest updates yet, maybe they will help.
