Could you build this?
No This project involves custom PCB design, embedded firmware, sensor fusion with particle filters, and geophysical magnetic anomaly map matching (WDMAM).
What it would actually take: A functioning MagNav system requires custom embedded hardware (ESP32-S3 interfacing with precision magnetometers and IMUs), custom firmware handling calibration and hard/soft iron distortion compensation, and a non-linear state estimation engine (particle filter) running against high-resolution WDMAM geomagnetic grid databases. This requires advanced domain expertise in geophysics, avionics, control theory, and embedded hardware engineering.
