"I don't know what problems you had with OPLink, but there have been some bad batches of OPLink clones that have shorted antenna connectors. Unfortunately, the hardware is all clone hardware at this point, but the firmware is still supported by the…"

"The OPLink sends the RC signal inline with telemetry, and has since 2013 - well before TBS crossfire, dragonlink, and RFD900+ have been around. Longer than 3DR modems have been around for that matter.
You really don't want to send control…"

"If your controller can output PPM, you can do it with a pair of OPLink modems."

"What is the beam divergence?"

"Fair enough.  I suppose an external AFSK->serial telemetry adapter could be built easily enough, so it could be supported without any modification to the board.  Whether the data updated smoothly enough would be a bit subjective I think.  It…"

"Looks very nice, but it's a bit too big and expensive for me to put on any of my air-frames.  I would consider it for a ground-based OSD, which has always made more sense to me than duplicating the functionality on every aircraft.
I assume the…"

"@RPM: NavSpark actually had a similar module much earlier, and it's significantly less expensive, but I don't know how it compares to the ublox module.

"@KUJayhawk:  I believe the M8P supports all the standard protocols that other ublox modules support, so it should work with DJI.  The only difference is that the position estimate is/can be more accurate."

"The M8P has the processor built-in.  It does all the calculation internal to the module."

"@Rob_Lefebvre:  Sharing a data-link should be just a matter of software I would think, and it makes sense, since the two data streams are flowing in opposite directions.

@DROTEK: Why not integrate it with the antenna and add a mag.  Is this really…"

"The concept has been tested on a model using an OpenPilot CC3D.

It does add alot of mechanical complexity."

"I like the simple setup, the rotary knob, and the leds, but why are we still using 40 year old PWM/PPM technology when we know this is going to be connected to a digital flight controller?  Wouldn't a direct, bi-directional serial link be better,…"

"If "RC-IN" means that there's are PWM inputs, I would think those would be easier to serve double duty as PWM output pins for those that use single-input receivers (PPM, SBus, etc)."

"I understand that a CAN based ESC can support a whole lot more than existing ESCs, but I've seen so many "next-gen" ESC projects that go nowhere because they just can't compete with the $10-$20 generic ESCs that have actually gotten pretty good with…"

"I like the idea of CAN, but when are we going to see mass produced, reasonably priced CAN ESCs in a wide range of sizes to compete with the existing ESCs?"
