I have checked out your test-code and I would like to use this board to test autonomous flight. You mention that you have written a come home feature. Does this mean that you have stabilization code that I could take a look at as well ?
Gentlemen,
Congratulations !!!
What you have achieved here is incredible!
Sure, it's been done before... but not in civilian laboratories.
Back in the 1980's, I was tasked to build a 3 axis IMU from the existing Copperhead missiles' roll rate sensor.
The unit had a Coriolis effect rate sensor and an accelerometer for each axis. The mission was to provide data to a flight controller for an ejection seat system, controlling a gimbal mounted rocket motor for propulsion.
The unit was able to turn on and provide calibrated data within 140 mS. It had a maximum angular rate of 3000 degrees per second and an acceleration limit of > 2000 G. However, the unit was 4" cubed and weighed ~ 1.8 pounds. It consumed ~ 5 watts of electrical power!!!

We've come a long ways baby...

Can we use LS2003X Gps module for this board (5Hz,38400baudrate)?
