GPS Flight controller

[Flynn]

Hey guys,

I'm not sure where to post this so I figured I would start here. I'm looking for a flight controller like a Naze 32 or something similar that I can use to take a quad copter up to a certain height say 100 feet and flip a switch and have it sit there. Does anybody know of anything recent that could do that for me?

Thanks guys appreciate any help

You can try the Tarot GPS Controller package

Or the DJI NAZA M V2

Both are comparable in functions and have 3D gimblas that will directly link to the FC for control.

I just worked up an estimate for a 680 size hex based on the Tarot gear using the Tarot gimbal and my GoPro. Gimbals that can hold my full size DSLR Canon are too pricey.

You can get GPS into a full NAZE32 board but I've read it is a major PITA with mixed results.

For a similar price to that Tarot, I noticed a mini Pixhawk for sale on HK:

Which is oddly cheaper than the equivalent micro APM (older hardware) set they have:

I have had very good luck with the Eagle Tree Vector Flight Controller. I have it on a Blackout 360 from with a Feiyu Tech gimbal. Here are some pics without the gimbal. That was added later.

It has been rock solid and easy to setup.

Here is some footage from Gopro Hero Black 5 on this craft, from this weekend:
