RE: [Paparazzi-devel] New GPS module from sparkfun

As Jeremy pointed out on the wiki, they used the wrong antenna.  A passive antenna would have been perfect, but they used the active....  Makes me wonder why?  Possibly something wrong in the design, who knows.  Great price though!

Hey guys,

Take a look at this:

http://www.sparkfun.com/commerce/product_info.php?products_id=8889

It's a dream come true ;)

A GPS module with a Ublox 5H and a sarantel Geohelix.

The only issue might be the connector, but I guess the best thing to do would be to remove the flex cable and solder wires directly to the PCB.

What do you guys think?
