ArduPilot with Dual GPS (blended)

Video: It doesn't say if Dual GPS was "only" used or in combo with optical flow and a lidar?
If the latter, then the Video Demo is what i would expect it to be. If optical flow and a lidar wasn't on at the same time with Dual GPS, then "WOW WEE"
Nice fine in anycase.....

They were testing both
But the GPS dual blend was shown in the picture. It works now in 3.4 but does not average or blend until 3.5
That full blown lidar flow demo under the tree was crazy

If Solo can do the "Under the Tree" successfully, then the FCC has to Pry it from my hands!

Dual GPS is an advertised feature of Pixhawk 2.1.
If you think the UBLOX M8N chips are scarce now just wait!

I just put a Mro M8N on my Pixhawk 1 running 3.3.3 and what a difference. I bought the one that has the Honeywell Mag on it also.

they are landing, got mine last week and I was late to the party
If you ordered early on when it was announced you should have it
it is pretty cool by the way. P2P and others have made it flyable on master already

From preliminary reading, I think RTK can give you close to MM accuracy with Base & Rover units implemented. Don't know yet if RTK helps in GPS lost given the same poor GPS reception area as opposed to Non RTK . I would think that is does, Just not 100% sure.
If you have a pocket full of dineros, This is what i world do.
