"ramboky - thanks - you're right - now I know why both the AMP and Gluonpilot use the MPU6000!
Still need to check out the APM sometime in the future though! :)"
ramboky commented on icebear's blog post The new Gluonpilot 2 has been launched..."@icebear I think you misread. Gluonpilot is using the MPU6000, the same as APM and PX4, with the SPI interface."
"OK, thanks Chris for the insight of the MPU6000/6050 - I guess we'll have to ask Tom about his preference in using the 6000 with I2C interface...
I guess I need to get check out the APM2 now also... :)"

"Mohammed: Yes, the chips are identical in all other respects. PX4 and APM use the MPU 6000 because it has the superior data interface, but both chips have the DMP. "

Yesterday I received one of the first updated Gluonpilot 2's from Tom Pycke in Belgium,
The Gluonpilot is an open source project created by Tom and the new GP2 is a completely new hardware design but firmware will run on both new and old Gluonpilots.

- Hi Icebear, I noticed your new pics on RCForums from the Brahe hus - a swedish 17th century mansion. Can you link and geotag them on the pictearth site. I would really like to see exactly where this is :)

- HI Bjorn,
Would you be interested in betatesting some windows processing software with your GPS Tracks and Still photos? Chris is starting to test, and we just got some Finns up and running this weekend. The more the merrier.
The program only requires a normal windows install, the output from your GPS (nmea, gpx, csv) and your digital photos with EXIF (time taken etc). It will produce files for Google Earth that we can then process.
Let me know if you are up for this, Thx

- Sure,
Scorpio Miss2 (similar verion available from HobbyLobby), no mods other than a camera mount fitted to the side of the fuselage and the addition of the Atto + GPS.
Motor is an AXI 2212/34 with APC 9x6 slim prop. Will actually fly for 45 mins on a 3S-2000pack and the AUW is around 34 oz + camera (4.5 oz).

what kind of camera are you using? The video quality is really good. All recorded are are you transmitting?
Thanks,
Edan

- Thanks Edan.
It is just a Pentax Optio s5z compact 5 MP digital cam. It has 640x480 video with DivX compression so you get 45 mins on a 1GB card. No downlink...
