"Corey, no. Sorry. Don't know how to test it yet. So I'll ask everybody, what do I do to test this board without the whole plane and everything? (I have soldering skills, I have the autopilot board and the GPS module with small ribbon cable. What do…"
"Tim at Sparkfun.Com was very helpful, and they had a nice little laugh at the possibility of Hummus or other lunch materials. Even though they use a modified dishwasher-like method of cleaning the boards (no joke), the possibility of flux paste was…"
"My board came in from Sparkfun. There is an unknown contaminant drip mark on the corner of a chip, across the green PCB coating, over the white silkscreen ink, and across a soldered leg on another chip. Sent this picture to TechSupport@Sparkfun.Com…"
"Ahh! Thanks Chris. Here's what the Adafruit site says about setting the network ID. While I went hunting, you answered me, great turnaround man!

"Xbee telemetry transmission would be an exciting addition! What happens if two flyers are using Xbee at the same time? Do the units know which is their mate? Or would data transmissions overlap or fail in some way?"
"Thanks for trying to keep the ArduPilot board compatible with Arudino/Boarduino. I've purchased the other parts already and am looking forward to the completed pilot board. You're thinking along very clear and "user-friendly" lines, keep it up…"
"Hi Chris, in reference to the original post which talks about the "multiplexer chip" as a free sample, Texas Instruments does not seem to be offering them for free anymore. Perhaps there was too much interest in the chip, or they found it listed…"
"Chris says-
"... I'm expecting ArduPilot to go on sale around the end of October, target price $29."
Oops, did I do a no-no when I just now ordered ArduPilotBeta3 from BatchPCB.Com?
