Pixhawk Autopilot module

The pixhawk autopilot module is used to abstract away motion control of Zoidberg.

Accessing the pixhawk directly can raise issues with permissions. This is best adressed by adding your user to the dialout group. You can see your current groups with the command

groups

These next steps will probably require superuser privileges

Add the current user (newuser in this example, change to match your username) to the group dialout

usermod -a -G dialout newuser

A restart may be necassary for changes to take effect.
