Confused what to buy? We have bundles ([http://ppzuav.com/osc/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=68 Tiny2.11 Bundle] and [http://ppzuav.com/osc/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=71 TWOG bundle]) to make it easier for you to get what you need quickly.
</p>
<p>We know it's hard to decide what to get, what you need to do etc. so we do quite a bit to help ensure when your parts arrive they are pre-programmed and include cables you'll need. These steps include:
<ol>
<li>We load the bootloader
<li>configure the GPS module (LEA-5H Tiny2.11 we also update the GPS Firmware to the latest from u-blox)
<li>We load a sample tiny2.11 program into it.  
<li>We verify it runs the program (LED1/RED flashes)
<li>Then acquires a 3D fix (LED2/GREEN flashes).
</ol>
* For TWOG orders we load the USB Boot Loader for you before shipping.<br>
* For Paparazzi GPS orders we update the u-blox firmware and load the Paparazzi GPS configuration file AND include the cable to connect it to the TWOG<br>
Our goal is for you to focus on learning paparazzi not trying to determine if your autopilot is working. This means you can use the USB programming cable (included) and load your aircraft configuration as soon as you receive your Autopilot. </p>
<p>
Please eMail '''sales@ppzuav.com''' with any questions or special requests before you place your orders. We return emails as quickly as possible. If it's an easy question within hours. More complex or longer explanation requests may take some time to read then write your answer so be patient.
