- | The openplotter interface to pypilot gives the best visual feedback. It is possible to use these tools on any linux system simply by [[installing pypilot]] The tools can remotely connect to the autopilot server. In this way, you can use openplotter or another linux computer to remotely connect to tinypilot or a different openplotter that is running the autopilot. | + | See [[troubleshooting]] if the autopilot fails to work from the openplotter menu |
