Hobbyking is selling a similar board as the KK Quadcopter board.

Based on the popular and already well supported KK Control board, the Hobbyking Quadcopter control board is bringing Quadcopter madness to the masses with its breakthroughs in quality and price!

The HobbyKing Quadcopter control board uses Japanese Murata piezo gyros that are less sensitive to vibration than SMD type gyros and also features state of the art SMT manufacturing to ensure quality. This board also uses a user programmable Atmega48PA IC.

Specifications:
Size: 50.5mm x 50.5mm x 23.5mm
Weight: 14.5 gram
IC: Atmega48PA
Gyro: Murata Piezo

Price is US$ 29.99. I think it is important to mention that Hobbyking has announced on their forums that a part of the profit of this board goes to the original designer of the KK board.

OpenLRS is a radio control system designed by Flytron in Turkey. For most of us, the name will make clear that this is an open source product. Source code is available for download, you can make improvements or change the code and share these with others.

The OpenLRS M1 is an open source transmitter module that is configurable for any channel (420-450mhz) or any protocol or extra features as telemetry receiver of OpenLRS Rx module. The M1 module exists of a 100mW RFM22B RF unit and Atmega328 processor with Arduino Bootloader.

The TX module includes:

• Frequency Hopping on 3 channels (see below)
• Serial port for firmware upload and telemetry application
• a buzzer for audible information
• bi color led for visible information
• RFM22B tranceiver module including Si4432 chip with configurable 0-100mW output, Frequency hopping capability and hundreds of other features
• 16Mhz Atmega328 processor with Arduino Pro Mini compatible bootloader.

Frequency Hopping
The code that is preloaded to the transmitter does 3 channel frequency hopping (not FHSS, FH only) for reducing risks. The standard refresh rate is the same as your normal transmitter (50hz), if one of channels is disabled by an external source, refresh rate is reduced to %66 (33hz) , if you loose 2 of 3 channels you can still fly with only %33 (15hz) refresh rate. If you don't like how Flytron has implemented frequency hopping, you can write your own hopping codes or just use 1 solid channel.

The receiver (is also a transmitter)
If you don't need the Futaba Tx module's advantages, you dont need an M1 modules too. Just order 2 receivers and update the one of them as a transmitter. Because M1 module and Rx modules using same RF modules (RFM22B) . Only you should change the pinouts of transmitter code. Code will be shared on the Flytron website shortly.

The RX module includes:

• Serial Port for firmware upload and telemetry application
• 3.3v I2C port for all modern sensors as WiiMotionPlus, WiiNunchuk, MEMs gyros, accelerometers, barometers, etc.
• 8 channel servo output
• PWM output for RSSI output. (You can modify it to be a 9th channel)
• Red and green LEDs for visible informations
• RFM22B tranceiver module including Si4432 chip with configurable 0-100mW output, Frequency hopping capability and hundreds features.
• 16Mhz Atmega328 processor with Arduino Pro Mini compatible bootloader.

Telemetry
The OpenLRS Rx module is actually a Transceiver, that means that you can use it as a transmitter or a telemetry transmitter. Just imagine, you can follow your plane's voltage levels or sensors of your quadrocopter and you can change the configuration by your PC.

Serial or Parallel PPM selectable
If you are using an autopilot/multicopter controller with serial PPM. You dont need any firmware change. Just plug a jumper (binding plugs of 2.4ghz receivers) between channel 1 and 3's signal outputs. OpenLRS Rx detects the jumper when startup and gives 2 short blink. This mean it's giving serial PPM signal from 8th channel.

 
You dont need external multicopter controllers or autopilots
The OpenLRS Rx module, includes serial and I2C ports for your future projects. Just include a WiiMotionPlus (DealExtreme) and upload your code for making a basic quadrocopter. Add a Wii Nunchuck and you have 6DOF IMU. or just buy a 9DOF IMU and connect. Our 3.3v I2C port compatible with all of modern I2C sensors. You can connect your GPS or other Serial equipments with serial port.

7 Watt booster for UHF frequencies
The booster is using a Mitsubishi RA07M4047M RF amplifier to generate a deadly 7W RF power, extending the range of your Long Range System (LRS) massively. The output power is configurable by the voltage you supply to it. It starts boosting from 3.7v(0.8W) to 9v(14W).  You can supply power to this booster with a 2S lipo (7.2-8.4v) battery and it will give you 7-10W power, depending on battery voltage. This booster can be used with any (if not all) of the known LRS's (DragonLabs, Thomas Scherrer TLRS, EzUHF)

Flytron

Flytron has all information on above products listed on their website. Schematics for both the transmitter and receiver are available as pdf on the specific product pages. There you will also find datasheets for the transceiver chips/modules used. Flytron also has a forum section where their Long Range System items can be discussed Last, but not least the source code used with OpenLRS is available for download.

A Swiss airplane, powered by solar energy has left the Swiss village Payerne for it's first international flight to Brussels in Belgium. The trip will take around 12 hours. You can follow flight control here.

The Solar Impulse combines the wingspan of a commercial airliner with the weight of a car. The wings are covered with solar cells that provide the electric motors with power. The inventors of the Solar Impulse wrote history last year when they circled for 24 hours over Switzerland, by only using solar energy. The team has planned to fly around the world within 2 years.

Designed especially for FPV (First Person View) camera flight!
This is a true FPV plane thats easy to build and comes packed with common sense FPV must-haves such as rear mounted servos for the elevator and rudder to help counter balance the additional radio gear. Other practical features include the large internal ply mounting trays for attaching large amounts of equipment in the desired position for correct C of G and of course a large canopy area, the canopy is not mounted to the frame allowing you to configure as you please.

This model is hand-launch which is easy due to combination of a large wing, and plenty of fuselage to grab a firm hold of, with the reccomended 4s power train, there will be plenty of power for the initial launch. The fibreglass fuselage is ultra tough and ideally shaped landing on grass, with a flat bottom and rear skid.
