Dear Sir,

  We are students in the Faculty of Engineering, Communication & Electronics Section, Assiut University, Egypt.

We are going to purchase one of the quadcopter you offer  for an educational 
project and we have some inquiries about the quadcopters you provide.

1- Is the microcontroller of the quadcopter programmable so that I can code my 
own controller? (if yes which is the used programming language)?

2-  Is the microcontroller of the quadcopter upgradable so that it can identify 
and communicate with some other components which can be added later.

3- Is it possible to establish some interfacing between the microcontroller and 
any other PC (through serial ports or USB connections) in order to gather some 
measured data by the sensors of the quadcopter for analysis.

4-Is the quadcopter in general upgradable so that we can add additional 
equipments for navigation or other purposes?

5-If the quadcopter you offer has all the above features, what is the cost, and 
how it can be shipped to Egypt ?

We are looking forward to hearing from you

With our best regards

1. Absolutely, It's C++ and Arduino compatible. I use the Arduino app to load 
my code over USB. I use BBedit to actually write the code though.
2. There are analog, I2C and Digital OI ports available for accessories and 
sensors. 
3. Absolutely. It even has 4K of onboard flash logging for high speed data 
capture. Or hook up a wireless radio for untetherd data capture. A USB with 
Serial running at 110K is available as well
4. It already has a serial port dedicated to GPS and supports 4 or 5 options 
including UBlox and Mediatek
5. Check out the store.DIYDrones.com. There are also resellers like
