Cockpit Widget for Trim set point

[3dMB (Marcus)]

Is there a way for the Very Generic Indicator mini widget to display tilt trim set point (similar to pilot gain or light power display)? I have done a search for “trim” and “tilt” but nothing seems relevant

Hi @3dMB,

Good question here - we did a bit of digging and the attitude targets are apparently exposed through the NAV_CONTROLLER_OUTPUT message. The tilt set point is accessible through the nav_pitch field

I’m not sure why the ATTITUDE_TARGET message isn’t supported in ArduSub, otherwise that would be another option.

Hi @3dMB

This will just show the current angle of the vehicle when disarmed or in manual mode, but when armed in stabilize or depth hold it will show the set-point the pitch or roll controller is trying to maintain.

Happy motoring!
