Software Report

How, what, why?

 

 

Software Goals:

Primary

• Reliable RC Controls for long distance
• Telemetry data feed back: Primarily battery voltage, current draw

Secondary:

• Autonomous navigation through way points via GPS

 

Control Software:

• ArduPilot:
  • Why: Already built library for autonomous and semi-autonomous vehicles

Hardware Choices:

• OrangeCube Pilot: Connects directly w/ RC controller, integrated IMU, 
  
• RPi 4: Interface with ArduPilot via WiFi for data streaming
