Tracking Antenna Controller + ELRS Gemini Tx

Tracking antenna conf: Tracking Antenna Controller Improvements (M3)
ELRS Gemini Tx conf: ELRS Gemini TX
Introduction
Goal of this project:
integrate tracking antenna PCB and ELRS Gemini Tx into one board
Why?
integration win that allows us to save a lot of space on tracking antenna
How?
Schem for both PCBs are completed and will stay pretty much the same (obv changes will be made if needed). The goal is to put both of these schems into a single project and create a new layout. Do whatever integration work is required in order to achive these
The approach for the management of this project will be:
@Nolan Haines & @Ahmed Osman are the PMs of this project. They will oversee the high level architecture, work distribution, and review contributions
a similar approach will be taken to how daniel did RPi interface. Individual members interested in this project will contribute to component selection & creation (as required), schem integration work, and layout work
the idea is to break the circuit into “modular” subsections that can be assigned to individual members to allow for interesting work for each of them while effectively getting the project done
work will be reviewed by PMs.
