I'm working on an autopilot for Propeller (I realize this has already been done, but I want a custom system), and I have a few questions.1) What advantages make the uBlox worth it's price? Should I get a uBlox or an EM406 to start with?2) Would it be easier to do an IMU with DCM, or should I use thermopiles?3) Do I really need a compass?4) Do I really need a pressure sensor?-Adam

1) uBlox is well worth the extra money, if only for the 4x data rate.
2) Thermopiles are 10x easier to code, but are bulky and have some limits (fog, etc)
3) No
4) Not for a basic autopilot.
