Direction & heading from the pilot directly to the aircraft (not relative to North)

Open kvng1 opened this issue 2 years ago • 1 comments

Good work! Is it possible to have Direction & heading from the pilot directly to the aircraft by adding uart compass module like this https://abra-electronics.com/wireless/gps/modules/sens-gy-26-digital-compass-module.html?

It's super helpful in aiming antenna while flying and in lost model locator.

Thanks. Due to health reasons I am no longer in the hobby. I’m surprised and happy that code still works. I have a vague memory of installing a gps in my Teranis and modifying the code to make it relative to pilot position but probably not direction. If I remember correctly the direction is obtained by change in position not a compass. I guess it could be relative to walking direction.

Anyway. Thanks for the thanks. Unfortunately I am unlikely to look at this any time soon.

Have an awesome day :)
