The Paparazzi project began in 2003 with the goal of creating a free and open-source UAV guidance system which could be easily adapted to a wide variety of aircraft for a wide variety of applications.  The system has since proved to be extremely successful and Paparazzi-based aircraft have won all top positions in every [[Gallery|flight contest]] in which they competed.

One of the greatest challenges facing newcomers to the project has always been the fabrication of the airborne hardware - so with the rapidly increasing number of users and hardware requests, the team now feels the need for commercially-produced hardware to be made available at minimal cost to the public. Therefore this announcement has two purposes:

<p><a href="http://www.onefastdaddy.com/catalog/">Onefastdaddy.com</a> is a Paparazzi Project Member (onefastdaddy on IRC) who has made available Paparazzi PCBs. Right now I have on there just extras of Tiny1.3, GPS board, even an IMU3J board(s)...and now Tiny2.11 but if I have the "gerber" files I can have others made. Just those are the ones I was interested in.
</p>
<h3>Want to have them FAB like I did?</h3>
<p>I found that I was unable to find a vendor for the Tiny1.3 boards so I googled around and found <a href="http://www.myropcb.com">MYROPCB</a>. They are in Canada and outsource to China who drop-ships them when the order is completed. They have a form online to get instant quotes and I have made 4 orders now and am quite happy. So if you need more than 5 you may want to consider going that route as I did.</p>
<p>
Also feel free to email me directly with any questions about the process I'm not a company so I will try as best I can with what I have learned so far. I also just do 1,2,3 at a time so they go out First Class USPS mail which saves on costs.
