Create function for directional data of ground vehicle

[dragonprevost]

Within the TelemData application there are functions for retrieving latitude and longitude from the pixhawk located on the vehicle. The task here is to create a new function that asks the pixhawk for directional data instead of latitude and longitude. The function should be very similar to the getLat and getLon functions.

Input:

• None

Output:

• The vehicles direction in degrees
• If not connected to the vehicle return -1

Notes:

• The libraries used to get this data are pymavlink and dronekit: documentation found beellow
• pymavlink documenation
• dronekit documenation
• Noah Clarke has experience with these libraries so you can reach out to him for help.
• The function has already been defined, you just need to fill it in.
• Test on the obc with pixhawk
