    Magnus,
    Unfortunately, that device does not have a reconfigurable address.

    Its nice to use on traditional helicopter, mount on tail boom.

    @joshua yes I meant that sda line cut. Stink that the mag can't be configured to use a new address instead.
    @justin thx for clear answer. Will order one of these as soon as they stock (:, hope my shaky hands are able to perform the surgery on apm.

    I got an e-mail from 3DR about an issue that required me sending my APM 2.5 back that will be replaced. Any chance the replacement will be a 2.6 instead of the 2.5?

    Great, thanks.

    Aaron,

    The only difference with the 2.6 is the omission of the on-board compass.

    Rob G,

    Yes, the case will fit the non-mag uBlox LEA-6, and yes they will be available for purchase.

    Will the new GPS case fit the older ublox GPS w/o the compass and will these cases be available for purchase?

    Awesome! I had similar suspicions and will hold out until 2.6 is released. So exciting!

    Hi all, i'm high schooler who is in the finishing steps of building my first quad copter, and have been saving up in hopes of buying the apm 2.5.  I look over this site about every other day to stay updated and see whats new, but i'm a bit confused. Is there a new design of the apm coming out(2.6), or is it just a slight modification ? I have the money to buy the apm 2.5, i'm just wondering if i should hold out a bit longer and wait for the new one.  I just dont what to have the save experience that i did when buying my go pro hero 2, three days after i bought it the hero 3 came out :P

    Magnus,

    Are you referring to this method?
