Just got my AttoPilot 2.0

Posted by Chris Anderson on September 9, 2010 at 10:00pm

AttoPilot International has a sweet deal for current AttoPilot 1.8 owners: just $300 to upgrade to 2.0. Why do it? Well, just look at this picture. That's some pretty amazing miniaturization! Smaller even than ArduPilot without its shield. Plus the AttoPilot folks upgraded my 1.8 unit to 2.0 software (actually, they did even better--they replaced it with new hardware because it was broken), so now I essentially have two 2.0 units. Best customer service ever!

    Another very happy V2.0 customer here. Well done Attopilot.

    CheBuzz--that's just a protective coating over the chips. There's the same on the bottom. Because the board does not come in an enclosure (unlike 1.8), most of the chips and traces are covered with plastic to avoid shorts from loose wires in the plane.

    What is the black shiny object in the middle of the board?

    The V2.0 will not disappoint. Its full of learned goodness.

    That is awesome! My 1.8 has been great, $300 is very very very tempting. :)

    That is great to hear. I have an older version that is broken, I hope they want to exchange mine too.
