... I'm not sure what values exactly I had before but I had to reduce the slew settings a lot to make it work.
I was expecting them to be saved in the motor controller so didn't write them down before updating.
The last pypilot.conf backup I took was a while ago but it had max slew speed:2 max slew slow:15. I'm not sure if that backup is of the settings that finally stuck or one of the many that disappeared. I'll try those settings and see how it goes. I vaguely remember using max slew speed:10 at one time too. It was probably either 2 or 10 when working.
Baby is sleeping now so I can't test the hydraulic pump, will report back in due course...
Edit: just noticedv another issue: servo max speed and servo min speed are both set to 1.0 in pypilot.conf even though I set them to other values in the web interface and those new values seemed to save successfully in the web interface they are not reflected in the .conf file.
I guess sooner or later one value will somehow over write the other, potentially losing my new settings?
Edit2: there are duplicate values in the .conf with the word order changed in the names: servo_max_speed is 1.0 but servo_speed_max is 53.5, the value I set in the web interface. Confusing!
UPDATE: without even having used the pilot, the slew values in pypilot.conf have already reverted and the values I set have been lost. The sv d and sv u commands did not help. Same old problem, I spent literally days of frustration just trying to get the slew settings to save last time. We need to sail next week and I don't have days of free time to spend right now so I really need a solution please!
