    I'm not sure what "really works good" means to you. I have two gps on my fixed wing. If I disconnect GPS1, the position of GPS2 will be used. It is supposed to take the GPS with the higher accuracy, but I have no way to test this behavior.

      Using two also, but I also have not way of knowing if the auto switching works.  It does provide some piece of mind, although the second one is the 3DR unit that I wasn't satisfied with to begin with.  It would typically only get 8 Sats while the primary NEO M8 gets 17 to 20.
