I currently run OpenCPN/openplotter on a RPI3B+
Im planning on installing a standard pypilot solution: Raspberry pi zero + Imo + motorccontroller.
Questions:
-Will the openplotter RPI and the Zero connect and work stable wireless?
-Can I adjust the gains of the pypilot from the interface inside the openCPN, on the RPI3B+?
Short to both: YES
Longer:
I run a RPI 3b+ with Tinypilot and an other with Openplotter 1.2
You interconnect them via WIFI, i have the Tynipilot set as WIFI-Server/AccessPoint and the Openpotter as client. (But you can do it also the other way: TP as client and OP as AP)
The WIFI connection is stable.
You can control the Pilot through the OpenCPN-Plugin in Openplotter or at OpenCPN from your Laptopp, you also can control the Pilot through any webbrowser calling the webapp and you can control also through and Keypad or Remotecontrol.
You have full access to calibration and gains with the OpenCPN plugin.
Sowere erlier in the forum I posted some pictures and videos of the Pypilot working on my Nicholson 44.
