Buyers that have used “Mission Planner” software will be ready to go. Those who have not will realize the Autopilot system is complex, it requires time to learn, setup surveys and run test missions. Be prepared to task someone to initially learn the system. We have made a pretty thorough video manual that should cover all the steps of turning your RC BathyCat into a Autonomous unit.

 

The BathyNav has a TTL converter system so you can bring an auxiliary NMEA GPS string out of your GPS receiver. All survey GPS have this capability. Simply choose GGA and RMC in the NMEA output setup and bring it to the autopilot via a RS232 cable. Now the Autopilot has the same accuracy as your Survey.
