Hi,

Any chance you would give a short rundown of this?

Is it related to PaulZC's version? Have you had one made and used it, how did it go?

I'm quite keen on the f9p, and the feather form factor.

cheers! Tony

Hey Tony!

I haven't looked at this project in ages since it was last updated. I never got around to making any of these boards, so I don't know how well it'll work, if at all. This was inspired by the "Take Flight with Feather" Hackaday Competition a while ago, combined with some recent GPS stuff I was doing at work at the time. This project isn't really a proper FeatherWing, it's a board that you could drop a Feather/Wing into. The Hackaday page definitely has better info for this project, this was just a place to store it.

It's not related in any was to PaulZC's version, though I have seen that. We just both used the same GPS module. I would trust their version a lot more, since those were actually built and tested.

Let me know if you have any other questions and I'll see how I can help!

Thanks sirmyles! Looks like a tidy board in any case.
