AeroCore250 in quadcopter

Developed in conjunction with Stanford University graduate students Robbie Bunge and Andrew C. Smith, the new Aerocore 250 Overo expansion board was specifically design for smaller, more nimble quadcopters and provides a cost-effective platform for building a light-weight UAV. Pair it with any of Gumstix’ Pre-GO series of GPS boards to pre-program a flight path or stream and capture video over WiFi with the addition of a camera.
