Changes for test #57 - New fix in VerticalControl that un-wedges mass - DVL update to clear velocity good flag - Verbose DAT values - Oneway command implemented for DAT - Drive outside of 1km. - Transit vehicle to 36.8144,-121.827 - query dock for heading by running Maintenance/dat_on.xml or by querying the modem with the command: "compass". Clear the output by typing ctrl-d. - run homing_altitude with no final approach on reciprocal course obtained in step above (e.g. dock heading is 360, run vehicle 180 degrees into dock) - If homing works, run homing_altitude with oneway set to 50m (then 100). - If homing works, run homing_altitude with dockBearing set to DAT.DockHeading value and use final approach? *** Record dock location and heading at the beginning of each homing run.

The dock swung around to 135-150 by the end of the mission. Dock HGD 137 at 13:20, so we sent the vehicle 500 m out on the reciprocal heading.
