Which sonar do I need to purchase with my order?
.
I need to be able to move the gps higher in the airframe, away from the electronics. Can this be done with the APM2? If so is there someplace I can go read to learn how to do it?
Also, while we are on the subject, can the mag be relocated as well? I would also like to have it farther from the airframe. If the mag can not be moved, can I disable and add another that is moveable? Will I lose anything by taking up another i/o with a secondary mag?
Thank you for your time. I emailed this question along with others and never got a reply. Called today and still didn't get much of a reply. Any help would be appreciated before I choose to go another route.

That's my only major complaint about the APM2. They globbed everything together, and most of it should have been kept separate.
I'm not sure about the mag part, but you can order the one without the gps option, and then add an external gps. Make sure you order a cable that is long enough as well, since the gps only comes with one that's 5cm long.
For the sonar, I would get the MB1200 XL EZ0. I have the MB1260 XL EZL0 but I think it's too sensitive. When I try the attitude hold it rode up and down following the small objects on the ground.
