ArduPilot Weight

Hi all,

I have done a fair bit of looking around on this site but have been unable to find even the total weight of the ArduPilot Mega. Does anyone know this?

It would be even better if someone could produce a table which itemised each component (including; ArduPilot Mega, IMU Sheild, GPS and wireless telemetry components) and its weight!

I need this information for a project I'm working on. Once I have it and can do some analysis I will be purchasing a complete ArduPilot Mega System.

Any help is much appreciated!


Kind Regards,

David

Are you asking about ArduPilot or ArduPilot Mega? They are different products.

Hi Chris,

I was referring to the ArduPilot Mega. Sorry for the confusion I have updated the post as well.

Thanks,
David

My scale is only +-~2g, but here's what it reads:

APM: 20g
Shield: 20g
MediaTek GPS: 5g

All together: 45g

Thanks Chris!

Do you know the component weights of the XBee Wireless Telemetry System?

Cheers
