Has anyone used this?

It seems to me that with this board and an android phone you can have all the sensors of the phone and the processor of the phone actually handle the flight controls etc. How is this actually used, is there any code out there to use it easily? I'm really wanting to get going on a quadracopter but my funds are limited, android phones I already have though so I'm looking to cut costs wherever possible. Not to mention it just seems really cool to get a drone setup using a cell phone :-) Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

There hasn't been any code written for it to control a drone like the ArduPlane/ArduCopter. I'm sure someone will port the code that exists for the ArduPilotMega board to run on an android phone, but this new board just got released as a pre-order, so it will take a while.
