Nautilus: Awning and furniture improvements

I am working on some upgrades for the Nautilus:

  • Installing the awning (Fiamma F45s), that require some custom roofbars, under design.
  • Installing struts on upper cabinets (leaving it without has been proved to be a real pain)

Navigator #10

The Navigator has been installed in the Nautilus, the case is a bit small but fit perfectly if inside the cage!

Now I just need to create the arm for the driver’s screen and fix the GPS antenna.

As the hardware is ready, I can start to improve the software and start to move from the Python mock to a C++ version.

Navigator 9: Case ready to be installed!

After some buck converters burned out (and few nights), I have been able to setup all the components inside the case, and is now ready to be installed on board of the Nautilus.

Water Sensor

Redesigning the water sensor for the Nautilus. The new sensor will include a bluetooth module, to be able to check the water level while filling the tank.

Navigator 8: case improvements

A first version of the case has been printed and “tested”. Printing single panels and using glue to assembly has been successful, the glue does a good job.

Anyway I decided to improve the design adding better supports for the internal components and several amendments to improve ventilation and easy access to the Raspberry Pi SD Card.

 

Ambush!

We started the Return of The Witch Lord expansion for Hero Quest… and this was the first quest, just after opening the first door: ambush! (we survived at last)
