Pypilot connections and installation

[Stevequolls]

Has anyone worked out the Pypilot connections and installation?

Doesn't seem to be much in docs.

Kind regards

Yes, Connections please, Red, Black, Blue, Green, Power +, Pwr - Motor A, Mtr B ?

Rudder positioner?

Programming?

Hello

Stuck,

On start up - 

"There are GPIO conflicts between the following apps: GPIO - 1W, pypilot - pypilot hat" ???

Kind regards

There are GPIO conflicts between the following apps: GPIO - 1W, pypilot - pypilot hat

Did you find a solution?

Hi BL,

Nope still no solution, I still can not get the Pypilot working, or the signalK connection, or any PI code?

Seems to be a new PI5 and new OP4, bugs to be worked through, it doesnt seem to be anyone here working on this.

Did the user manual help with connections at least?

Yes there are probably potentially bugs in the latest openplotter especially with pi5, sorry.

I would suggest considering at least just trying with a pi zero and the supported tinypilot image if you can because the configuration is already at boot and you would have an easier understanding of the system.

Still working on this, PI5, pypilot is still not working, disconnected?

I have to launch in 3 weeks, trying to go home, from Western Australia to the East coast.

Is the someone I can hire/pay one on one, to help get me up and running?

Kind Regards Steve

Still working on a solution, just back from work.

As Sean recommended, you need to install Pypilot on a small Pi Zero W. Adding an IMU compatible with the Pi's 3.3V I2C bus, installing an SD card with a stable image, and pairing it with a powerful motor controller is enough to create a powerful autopilot.

The Tinypilot computer has the advantage of being very energy efficient and can be started and stopped with a simple switch, without any precautions. It will work perfectly if the Pi5 is not running, but it will still be controllable by the latter and the multiple control possibilities offered by Pypilot.

You will find the schematic of a simple Tinypilot, showing what is essential and what is optional with the following link.
