- burn the openplotter image to sd card 2020-12-16-OpenPlotter-v2-Starting.img
- enable i2c interface with sudo raspi-config
- open OpenPlotter settings app and install I2C and PyPilot
- the updates need to be downloaded and installed, go to terminal window and enter the below commands;
- sudo apt-get update
the above may fail, still continue
- sudo apt-get install libqt4-dev cmake -y
- git clone https://github.com/seandepagnier/RTIMULib2.git
- git clone https://github.com/pypilot/pypilot.git
- cd RTIMULib2/Linux/
- mkdir build
- cd build/
- cmake ..
- make -j4
- sudo make install
- sudo ldconfig
- cd ../python/
- python3 setup.py build
- sudo python3 setup.py install
- cd ~/pypilot/

run the above command twice
