"Did i read that right? GPS built into ardupilot? oh no, after i already bought the ublox! i hoped that gps would be something that was user controlled not factory implemented."
"I have the v 1.0 of the shield and am not worried about it. if i want the upgrade its only like $18 so i will just get it when a imu is ready. (hoping someone ports the imu to replace the thermophiles in ardupilot)"
"the current ardustation does not fit on my screen. so i am working to develop one that fits on m screen. would be cool to get mapping built into it at the same time."
"As far as ardustation is concerned, i have been working with labview a bit and am learning alot in my free time. The nice thing is that i am learning how to build customized looks to dials and stuff. so i will be able to produce realistic not so…"
"When i was looking into ppz i figured a seperate gps would be best. and with ardupilot i think its very nice. I will give a few reason of why i feel that way.
1. When separated it is easier to replace the unit or the ardupilot when one or the other…"
"well see that's great, exactly what i was hoping for. so in this case the unit should be offered without the gps module. should cut the price in half."
"Yes Thomas, that is my thoughts. the OSD to be properly integrated would simply piggyback on the ardupilot and get ALL the relevent information from it. else its a stand alone unit."
"I was afraid of that. I dont think the XYZ sensors will work where i live. too many mountains. guess i need to wait till ardumega, and find a use for my current ardupilot board."
