Hi, the Diydrohes project is testing the new MPU6000 sensors http://www.diydrones.com/profiles/blogs/apm-2-0-release. This Autopilot is offered for 199$. They have also a new version (V3) of the ADRUIMU with this sensor:.https://store.diydrones.com/ArduIMU_V3_p/kt-arduimu-30.htm They write that the sensor fusion inside the sensor is working much better than the DCM. Next year they will sell a arm autopilot. What is about the code range for the ST Processor ? Ollimex has a low cost 24 Euro PCB: http://www.watterott.com/de/OLIMEXINO-STM32-MAPLE. With the invensense sensor shield it seems to be possible to make the autopilot below 50 Euro. Heinrich Andre Devitt schrieb: great, hadn't seen that! thanks.

Also the Aspirin2 uses the MPU6000 and the driver is already written (by Christophe DeWagter) and already in the dev branch...

Seems promising for lower cost future autopilots. http://invensense.com/mems/gyro/mpu9150.html Apparently will be available 4/16/12 It looks like they basically took their previous 6000 series (gyro + accel only) and stacked a magnetometer on top of it (package is a bit taller but otherwise the same, pin compatible). Considering the cost of the 6000 series is about $13-$15 this could significantly bring down the costs of autopilots in the future if the 9000 series is priced similarly. I've played with the a microquad that uses the 6000 series and it seems very stable. http://www.amainhobbies.com/product_info.php/cPath/2_382_707/products_id/222374/n/Blade-mQX-BNF-Ultra-Micro-Electric-Quad-Copter I hope to get a paparazzi driver up for the MPU-6000 within the next month or so, will forward any progress I make.
