1st flight test after installing mRo M8N GPS board:
Test conditions were not ideal. Winds were variable from the SW at 7-9 mph after the recent storm that came through the Los Angeles area. I can say that for the short 8 minute flight that I was able to get in, it did appear that Solo was holding position better with the new M8N board installed. There was very little drift in hover and Orbit and CC modes appeared smoother. Acquired 18 satellites with an HDOP of 0.7 in clear terrain within 20 seconds of start up. I'm definitely satisfied with the upgrade so far.
