RE: pypilot on openplotter 3 - seandepagnier - 2024-01-09
So is this basically a warning not an error? Does it work anyway as expected if you ignore the message?
The main issue with using usb is latency and reliability. It may not be a problem for you, but across many users, it would inevitably cause issues I believe, and this is why I made the choice, but of course using usb is fully supported.
Do you have a later model pi, such as 4, 5 or zero 2? These support several additional hardware uarts and I would suggest considering this instead as you could use alternate gpio pins and still be able to use bluetooth.

Thanks, it helps. Any way to "hide" warning message but dig in source code?

I assume the warning comes from:
https://github.com/openplotter/openplotter-pypilot/blob/65e0531de874677d5b793fa33b6518fdf1187ccf/openplotterPypilot/openplotterPypilot.py#L234
This is more recent updates sailoog must have made, I have not reviewed.

That is not new, it is just a warning and it can be removed. Anyway that will change in OpenPlotter 4 boorworm because serial ports definitions changed in Raspberry 5.
