    Let me ask you this: If you bought, say a 1965 Mustang, and it was advertised as fully, 100% stock, original, as delivered in 1965. You paid say, $35,000 for this genuine, original, stock Mustang. You enter it in a car show, in the stock car class and are told by the judges, the car has a...

    Heh...Eat your heart out sonny. Yeah..I'm old, but not quite that old! I will give you this, when asked how old I am, I tell them I am so old, I saw the first sunset. As for the Corvettes. My brother and I have each had Corvettes since we were old enough to drive. My first was in 1958, and...

    Bilge..Like I said earlier...It's the principle, and I won't back down from that. Just not my nature. Money is no issue with me. Just Look at my avatar and sig. However, I do like to save money so look for bargains. Hence my communications with 3DR initially. :)

    By factory 'reburbished' it is understood by the courts, to have been put in a like new, as currently or lastly sold to the public, condition.

    Don't live in California, I'm in Nevada. It is the principle that needs to be addressed, not the cost. "Who has the time?" Well, I do. I am retired, so I do have the time. I don't know you, and have no idea the kind of man you are. But... It 'sounds' to me like you are one of the...

    Actually, 3DR told me that a number of the refurbs *were* upgraded to the V2 GPS, but the respond'er did not know how many, or if it was all. (This was a week and half (or so) ago when the offer first popped.)

    In the world of electronics, the courts hold factory refurbished as meaning refurbished to the newest standard for that model. They don't have to say it *doesn't* include. By *not* say it doesn't include, the courts assumption is that it was refurbished to the latest version of that model and...

    Mine came in today. No, it does NOT have the V2 GPS. (Unless some of their V2 boards were green!) Already sent a message to 3DRobotics that I want my money back. I fully expected to have the latest, trouble free GPS module, in the bird, not one that has known issues and caused more than a few...
