The tack button knows which way to tack if you have wind sensors, otherwise it has to guess depending on last tack. This could use some improvement, and there are also options to make "tack port" and "tack starboard" buttons. Eventually the single tack button could take a hint from starboard and port buttons to help it tack the correct way. Tacking is not very well testing on pypilot.
Hi Sean
So I replaced the MPU 9250 on the tiny pilot today (the old one would no longer hold a heading) and because the nokia screen that came with my tinypilot requires pressure on the front to display I decided to try and connect via hdmi
.
I received some errors on the screen and it seems to eventually have loaded since I can connect to the webapp. I was hoping the hdmi screen would just display the webapp. Is that possible? I have a tiny 7" hdmi touch screen I would love to use as the main interface on my boat without having to rely on wifi.
