Add easy method to save config info to SD card

We want to save config info like the image size, camera field of view, colour filter's H, S and V values to the SD card so that it can be easily modified.

Align timing of vehicle attitude capture and image capture

There's a noticeable lag in the display of the artificial horizon in the balloon-strategy script which indicates that the image capture and vehicle attitude are being captured at slightly different times.

python script cant't run

I using Raspberry 3B and checked serial port connect correct . when I run start_balloon_finder.sh or balloon_strategy.py appera this problem:
