Please tell us a bit about your UAV interest
for engineering fun. Was interested in Mikrokopter but was turned off by closed source. Now running APM2 on a 3DR Hexa with 880 motors, u-blox lea 6 GPS, sonar, opto flow, 3DR Radio, video transmitter and 4S/8000mA lipos. GoPro Hero2 on stabilzed gimbal.

does anyone want to share their experience in building waterproof multicopters? I'm looking into building a hexa that would allow me to fly in light rain or snowfall. I'm currently using a 3DR Hexa with 880 motors and was thinking about putting the…
"the guys over at MikroKopter using u-blox lea6 too and suggesting simple a GPS shield for an even improved S/N ratio. Check it out

What do you think? Worth a try?"

"yes, it is the APC props for me here too. I ended up using drills in steps on the rings once they were mounted: 6.1mm, 6.2mm and 6.3mm one after another to keep it centered as good as possible."
"I'd like to put an external magnetometer on a board HMC5883L at least 6" above the battery and power distribution with an APM 2 similar to what NAZA looks like. I already got the the uBlox Lea6 working with onbaord GPS disabled. I'm using it on a…"

"Hi Mahesh, you can add a backup battery to the MT3329 on the APM2 if you like. Check page 10 here:
