Hi,
great news, however...
µSpirit ist designed for helis up to 250 Class?!? Does it make sense to mount such a big module on such a small helicopter?!?
I wished there was a solution for my 5 red & black Spirits. I am not willing to buy 5 new Pros just for GPS and have 5 unused red & black Spirits left...
My µSpirit is in a too small heli to mount that module on it.
So right now I can just use GPS on my 550 heli with its Spirit Pro.
Nevertheless I do not want to have any other FBL system on my helis than Spirit.
Best regards,
Alexander

We are testing the module with Oxy 2 and as far as we know there is zero problems flying 3D and having this module mounted. Especially if one is beginner, it is not a problem.
Or you can just remove canopy and weight is nearly same

Well, the module is the smallest module available for all helicopters. All others are bigger. So we think it is quite small actually :-B
Actual performance is directly proportional to the size of antenna and PCB, so by making it smaller the performance goes down significantly - no way for us.

Maybe it is the smallest module and for trainers an bigger helis it is fine for sure.
My µSpirit is used in a small semi scale heli where I cannot remove a canopy nor mount the module on the tail boom, so no chance in this case.
But much more important for me: May there be a chance to adapt the GPS module to the red & black Spirits some when in the future? Then I would order for sure!
Best regards,
Alexander

We believe we can add support also for small Spirit units.

If using telemetry do we give up using the secondary port for a Sat to use the GPS ?
Or do we use a y cable ?
