This is a beta release of the CubeSatSim code ported to the Raspberry Pi Pico for the v0.3 Pico PCB. Here is the info on this board: https://github.com/alanbjohnston/CubeSatSim/tree/pico/hardware/pico/v0.3 The code is compiled using the Arduino software.

The binary UF2 file is included with this release. To install it, follow these steps:

Plug your Raspberry Pi Pico into your computer using the micro USB port while holding down the BOOTSEL button (white button on the Pico). It should mount as a drive RPI-RP2.

Set bus 1 and bus 2 status based on at least one INA219 present
If takes longer than 1 second to read INA sensors
Logs message saying there is a problem
Remove I2C address for BME since it started failing for some reason
