- I've updated the parts list in the original post to reflect our recommended configuration (with pigtails rather than right-angle servo and RC receiver connectors)
- The GPS connector doesn't have as robust a physical connection to the board as we'd like (we need to tweak the board to give it a little more room). If you're using this board, you might want to epoxy it on before soldering its electrical connections.
- We accidentally designed this board with a surface-mount reset button, when the reset button that comes with the Boarduino kit that we use for parts is through-hole. I've listed the surface-mount part you need in the original post, but we'll tweak the board to use the through-hole version in the future.
- Use the jumper that comes with the Boarduino kit to bridge the power selector pins (top left corner in the photo above) for the option you want: power from the RC receiver or another source. I use the RC receiver and it works great, but if you want power redundancy you may want to go with a second battery just for the autopilot.

That's correct.
ATTiny Pin1.
I assume this is hiding behind the resonator X1
The board is not marked and I have not looked too buch at the schematic.
I got the 157D on the board OK.
Thanks

I finally got my board, but it's the previous verson. I see the obvious difference in their layouts. Am I going to have success using the earlier board or do I need to just use it as a practice platform for my soldering skills (or lack of...)? The plus side to this board is the reset is the correct one to match the boardino kit... Do you have a photo of one of the earlier boards assembled? If you do could you post it or send me a copy?
