RC Airplane Joystick Flight Simulative Transmitter System

This post is just a chop from the product page here on Nitroplanes.com, but I needed stuff to put into the discussion so I knabbed their entire page!

I think for some this would work well as part of their GCS.

GPS Altitude Error.

My team and I ordered a GPS unit from DIYdrones (GS407) for replacement in our Ardupilot/Easystar setup (The first got trashed in an unfortunate meeting with a building at 100ft.) The unit was ordered to be Ardupilot compatible, and would not plug an
