'Final' code that was attempted to be used during the EVC-A26 Track Week.
Ran successfully on a kart stand under RC control.

Autonomous Distro-Control Board
state machine

Working:

  • CAN TX for ADCB -> Rubik Pi 3
  • PWM output to control servo and throttle
  • RC IBUS reading system (circular dma + sync finding + disconnect
    logic)
  • RC estop
  • Debounce controllers working
  • Contactor closing (we hope precharge sequence has been working)

Known issues/todo:

  • CAN2 RX is not working. The fix is likely routing the CAN2 filters
    through CAN1
  • Dynamic PWM enable <-> Hi-Z does not work. Temp solution: commented
    logic out.
  • LED blinking is does not look correct.
  • Update README with IBUS info
  • Clean up magic numbers in RC throttle handling
