Some questions for pypilot
#1
Hi,

repost this from the OC-Forum.

For the wintertime and against the covid-19 blues I thinking about a pypilot projekt.

Some questions:

I now running a pi3b+ with Raspbian Buster and Opencpn 5.2

I can use the plugin for getting the "brain" right?

For the motorcontroller I´ll use an Arduino nano and a IBT-2 controller.
As actuator something like this: https://pcnautic.nl/nl/autopilot/pcn...erdrive-detail
There is a built in 10kohm potentiometer for getting a position feedback (like rudder angle)
Where in the arduinocode for the motorcontroller is this resistor (the rudder-angle resistor value) defined?
Do I have to adjust the value to my hardware setup?

Pypilot uses a IMU (gyro) for getting heading Infos. Can OpenCPN use this heading Infos, will pypilot send theese to OpenCPN? Is it possible to use the Headinginformation for eg Radaroverlay?

Thanks

Regards

Andreas
