App is build on top of the oncegreat"Tower" application. A simple, yet feature rich app. Butmainlytargeted at the multi rotor pilots. Tower could be usedforcontrolling bait boats, but it was a far from idealcompromise.Carp anglers needed an app of our own! The Carp Pilotapp isdesigned and tested by enthusiast carp anglers and watermappers tofit our special hobby. The modifications from Toweraresignificant. We have added features carp anglers really needwhenwe enjoy our hobby. The app can of course be used by any boatorvehicle of type "rover". But please do not use this app withanyother ArduPilot vehicle type than the ROVER as key features(likethe altitude) has been removed. We recommend the app to beusedwith ArduRover firmware ver 4.0+. Some features will be limitedonolder firmware versions. A special thanks to the Carp Pilot'stestteam. For ideas, patience, inspiration. For great adviceonbuilding boats. Electronics. Wireless echo sounders. Wifirangeextenders. Making maps. GPS configuration. Printing boatparts.Translations. And for all the shared ideas for this greathobby weall have in common. A big salute to Thomas, Andrey, Max,Pedro,Jens and Twan!!!
