Nell's AP - Wheelpilot + OctopusRS or JefaLD100
#5
I make usb to nmea adapters:
https://pypilot.org/opencart/index.php?r...duct_id=52


You can send nmea data to pypilot as a tcp socket. If you have the data in opencpn you can just add a connection for example. Ideally I would not rely on an android if possible.

For powering the motor controller I would suggest 20 amps. Also, that linear drive I linked, the high speed one is probably not the best fit for your boat as it does not have a lot of force. I can suggest alternative drives that are much more powerful, but I thought you had a hydraulic system planned?
