Im working on my own controllers,
A miniwheel, based of the EMRI HCU with inspiration from the SMART Knob:
The display giving rudder angle, set course and Course Over Ground.
I am ironing out the details with it but the PCB's should be ready I am just dealing with JLC-PCB to get parts back in stock. Firmware still needs to be made but that's how far I am.
There is a motor in the base for the haptic feedback when snapping to center and manually setting the limits.
And some AZIPOD controllers based of the one from Kvant that can be used as throttle or thrusters as well:
(Colour will be black with the finished product)
The AZIPOD controller will get the same motor in the base and in the handles. This for haptic feedback when snapping to center and setting limits for the throttle handles as well.
This as well opens up other opportunities. Currently thinking about adding a display and some knobs for changing different modes of operation.
I'll keep you updated here in a while. For more direct updates or conversation about the project hop on the Nautis Home Community run Discord I posted earlier.
