Yellow Whip Pinout

The new otterbox has been demostrated to be water proof. The relays, 12V-5V converter and the Arduino which controls the joystick were moved into the box and are ready for water tests. The otter box has 2 seperate 7-pin water proof bulkhead connectors and appropriate whips (the connector pictured). The yellow whip will be the interface with the tether, and currently will carry the following:

pin 1: 12V +
pin 2: 12V GRND
pin 3: Rx
pin 4: Tx

Future builds will include a second arduino to handle sensor data. This arduino will have SDA and SCL pins for I2C communication.
