[chbot] Arduino navigation sketch

[Nathan Kennedy]

Hi Noel,

There are some guys in the US that did this with a cheap RC car. They are
using a NMEA based GPS module though, which I'm not sure if the EM406 is.
Could be a good starting point at least.

Let us know how you get on!

Thanks,
Nathan.

Subject: [chbot] Arduino navigation sketch

Hello 
I need some help to create a sketch to steer a model boat though a few
waypoints from a GPS.

This is a hobby project but I am willing to pay a negotiated fee.

I do not think its a difficult job for an experienced programmer, but thats
certainly not me.
It involves UTM calculations, and steering control.

I have a Uno & Em406 GPS.  I will need a compass, but have not decided on a
model yet.
Please let me know if you are interested in learning more.

Thanks
Noel Grant
