In general it is hard to make the raspberry pi act like it has a Real Time Operating System (RTOS), especially with common OS like Raspbian. It seems that there are some kernel options that may help this cause. In general we need to find a configuration that minimizes any interruptions from the operation of the system while still supporting networking, which we need to communicate with the base station computer.
I suspect this is a very difficult project and we may be better off switching away from the Raspberry pi in the long term instead of tackling this beast.
