I would like to share the results of testing a “very cheap” sonar based on HC-SR04. Earlier I added a description of using HC-SR04 for Rover. @geofrancis created a PR for use as a sonar, the forum members responded to this PR. As a

result, @geofrancis shared the modified firmware(Rover 4.2).
If the vessel is just drifting, the readings correspond to reality.The results are such that when the motors are running, the readings are very unstable.
Next time I will place the sonar in the bow, removing it from the motors (and ESC) and the water flows from the screws.
If someone wants to repeat the instructions here, the only thing you need is to change the parameter "If someone wants to repeat the instructions here, the only thing you need is to change the two parameter SERVO13/14_FUNCTION = -1. In the MP there will be the parameter RNGFND_SPD_SCAL should be set to 13.44 for fresh water and 13.26 for salt water.
Special thanks to the forum members for their help - @geofrancis
My test boat
During testing, I used a second sonar(Echologger ECT400) so that I could compare readings.
Log files are attached and a short Video.

... [More]
Rpanion-Server consists of a node.js webserver for the user interface and mavlink-router for routing MAVLink telemetry from the connected flight controller. GStreamer handles low latency video streaming from any connected cameras. There are also modules for managing network connections, NTRIP streaming and viewing hardware information.
Version 0.8.0 adds the following major new features:
Add UDP video streaming
Support for Ubuntu on the Raspberry Pi and NVIDIA Jetson
Add fps option for video streaming
Ad-hoc wifi support
Wifi channel selection in AP mode
TCP server for MAVLink telemetry
NTRIP streaming support
UI more consistent
The documentation and pre-built disk images for the Raspberry Pi are available here.
The source code can be found here, at GitHub.
Bug reports and Pull Requests are most welcome.
