In need of opion about Rev A and RevB GPS board

[drone rivers]

I bought 2 Solo's at different times from Best Buy for $299.One is Rev A and one is Rev B.I know from reading from this group that Rev B already has the RF shielding and newer PC board.Should I panic and take back the Rev A while I can.In other words am I stuck with shitty GPS reception?I know at $299 it's a steel of a deal.What does the group think.

The Rev A one I have connected just fine. The cardboard mod is a good idea regardless and easy to do.

The shielding is no different. It's other hardware on the board that is different. I would just buy the v2 shield from 3DR for both of them and call it a day.

that is what I found
with the shield they were about equal
the real GPS in the house is that MRO M8
