[Rhodes22-list] Tiller auto pilot

[Tom Van Heule]

What other devices/kit do you need to integrate it usefully?
If my understanding is correct, you would need to add a 'seabus' type
device and have something (plotter/ipad/etc) to input to the autotiller.
a LAN of sorts.... the autotiller cant just drive itself, right?
Sounds like its worth doing from the member responses so far - but this is
not something GB specs out - would love to hear a DIY of retrofitting, or
fitting rather.

P.S. Is there a good way to search for video uploads to the archive? Peter
seems to have curated a lot... I saw a capsise test on a coast gaurd boat
today, and wondered if any of us would sacrafice (not mine)/test for some
video on Phil/Stans design to perform the same rollover test? maybe the ROC
would find a boat to show its meddle? just thoughts. rambling... etc.
