We've got some awesome new products coming out on Friday, along with great discounts as part of our annual DIY Drones store Black Friday Sale. It will start at midnight EST on Thurs (9:00 PM PST) and go through the weekend.
Get ready for a new version of the APM 2.5 kit, with a sleek enclosure, a new improved MTK GPS with a larger antenna, firmware and battery backup. Plus a cool new accessory: a power supply + current/voltage power sensor, all in a tiny board. And all these are now included in the new APM 2.5+, at a new, lower price! (The APM 2.5 itself is unchanged; it just now comes in a cooler, cheaper package).
Also, look for new PX4 kits, including everything you need for this exciting new autopilot.

Comment by Christiaan van Vollenstee on November 22, 2012 at 12:51am Is your black friday this friday?

yup this Friday

Exciting indeed! And Chris, is this the enclosure that those with an existing 2.5 will receive? And if only I knew about this before placing my spares order a couple of days ago! (:
Comment by Hein du Plessis on November 22, 2012 at 4:39am When does the sale start, GMT? :D

Oh good, I need to get another Ublox. Just hope I can figure out cheap shipping to Canada.

Oh, and you have a sale on the 3DR Radio, what about just the airborne side?

Do I need to pull an all-nighter? :)
