I mentioned it in other thread, but at least one I ordered was very, very bad quality, soldering was poor and it died on second flight. Maybe just unlucky, but it look like it was soldered in Monday morning after 3 day party.
I see that the Hobbyic site also has a page called "Arduino Electronics".
That page is empty right now, but how long before they have cloned APM parts?
Again, where will buyers go for support?
Hello Chris!
opensuprise.com.... what a sense of humor... however that is the price of open source, if somebody decide to step into it, he should be prepared to face it. at least they use Remzibi name and not something twisted as the website name
I realize this happens with the open source/ open hardware model, but its sucks.
Even linking to your site for your software, @Happy.
Here they mention the word copy, but on the Hobbyic site, nothing!

There already is a cloned APM + IMU: http://www.diydrones.com/profiles/blogs/china-copy-ardupilot-mega
There's some good discussion there on open source hardware and clones.

Hello Chris!
But where will people be going for support? - I am sure it will be to Remzibi and Happy.
Not likely to find much in China.

Doesn't have my blessing, I'm assuming it doesn't have Remzibi's either...that said I suspect there is little that can be done to stop it...
Yes, it is sad....but Remzibi doesn't have the production capacity to keep up with demand...and it is open source.
You can also find them on eBay. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Remzibis-OSD-Poor-Mans-OSD-10HZ-GPS-FPV-UVA...
On your web site there is NO mention that this is a copy... It is repeatedly called Remzibi
