Compass Heading, Motor Control, Wireless and Graphic Display Project
i have done basic programming pic , basic stamps , having fun arduino uno. have project , advice optimal arduino project. have simple tv antenna (aluminum) on aluminum mast rotor runs on 12vdc (solar charged deep cycle batteries) control remotely in-house while monitoring antenna compass heading in real time . set heading desired , have controller activate rotor motor until heading reached. have figured out basics of uno reading data lcm303 magnetometer, , have xbee series1 connected uno transferring corrected compass heading data via serialsoft.h library xbee connected laptop.
for remote project, @ antenna side, envision local arduino+mag sensor+servo relay shield+xbee. 150' away have arduino standalone controller + xbee+graphics lcd. (to start though have xbee laptop software control).
for remote location setup, uno or due adequate handle xbee serial interrupt communications sending magnetometer data strings, , receiving servo motor requests? remote arduino code basic loop code alternating between sending compass heading updates , receiving servo motor control while in-house arduino (or laptop program) parse data , decide whether update remote servo motor or not. avoid lot of unnecessary , forth fine motor movements, in-house control program activate remote servo motor target rotor turn specific heading selection. i need write code selected compass heading being approached, servo rotor impulses (on cycles) slowed down , matched real compass heading data updates prevent overshoot , oscillations.
i appreciate comments forum members on project concept , advice xbee communication , serial interrupts needed limit data overflow/delays.

any arduino can job - don't need part cash due.
