Current target is to be out of the joinery shop by early October and ready for launching sometime in November. Maybe by Christmas?

It seems clear to me, based on my limited understanding of all position finding systems from celestial to GPS, that the only way I can know (not estimate) my ship's heading is by reference to a magnetic or gyro compass, or by measuring the relative bearing of the sun or other celestial objects.
