Last week, I got course keeping to work, this week I got waypoint following to work! The first time, things came to life I had the suspicion that my rudder command might go into the wrong direction. The last two weekends, I was fortunate to have great weather to be able to run a few tests! Nothing is more exciting than the first time a system comes to life and can be tested. The other is me re-engineering the motor. Unfortunately for me, I needed to read the pypilot motor Arduino code and understand AND rewrite it to be able to put all the necessary hardware together to make the 'basic autopilot' work. At least, that should have been it if the pypilot documentation would have been completed already. Just download the ready made image with all necessary software already preinstalled and configured and connect PyPilot to localhost. To make the experience fit your profile, pick a username and tell us what interests you. This will require repeating steps above.I am in the process of implementing an autopilot on my 42' Uniflite Aft Cabin Cruiser based on the original hydraulic steering system. Try moving the GPS receiver to a clear location. If the LED is off there is no power being received.

It is not necessary to use the installation disk to setup the BU Following the steps listed below will result in the latest driver being installed. The specific driver for the each GPS receiver will handle this conversion. There are several companies making dedicated GPS receivers. Note that the extensive use of the cheap gps mouse BU as an example below, should only be seen as an illustration.
