Oh man, I saw this thread to late.....

[Mr.RC-Cam]

I might be able to offer more EM-411's. Is there any interest?

New GPS in Town:
There is a very cool GPS module that is starting to show up in UAV discussions. It is the ETek EB-85A. The interesting thing is that it has 5Hz updates when configured for 38.4K baud operation! That allows for exceptional realtime operation. Sparkfun has them for about $100. However, if there was interest, I could do a group buy. With luck, I think I could offer them for $80 + shipping.

I have not used one, so I don't know much about it (but a forum member is trying one out). To help with questions, attached is the EB-85A data sheet.

Personally I have started using this GPS (purchased from Sparkfun), but I have a couple of flying buddies who might be interested at the $80 price.

EB-85A (5Hz), of course.

[Mr.RC-Cam]

News Flash: I have a few more EM-411's. Another forum member needed some, and I had to buy more than I wanted to get them. So, I have extras that need a home. Limited quantities.

Anyone else interested in the proposed EB-85A group buy? At this point, it is a no-go (chime in to convince me otherwise).

Same, count 3-4 of them for me

Sounds like I should try to get some EB-85A's. Give me a couple weeks to arrange it.

Hello Mr RC-CAM,

I am from Sri Lanka and I am interested about this GPS module, it is a very attractive price. How is the warranty for this module?
I want to pay using my VISA card and also I would like to now what is your shipping method to Sri Lanka and cost?

Mr. RC-CAM,

Sorry, I couldnt tell you I want to have EM411 module

[Mr.RC-Cam]

How is the warranty for this module?

That's a good question. There isn't a formal warranty, but I am fair. If you are used to working with delicate electronics, and use care, I don't expect you will have any troubles. But, because they are used in the buyer's custom project, they can be damaged by their wiring or DC power mistakes. If a person kills one due to their mistake, and insist that I exchange it, then it comes out of my pocket. So far that has not happened, thank goodness.

I want to pay using my VISA card and also I would like to now what is your shipping method to Sri Lanka and cost?

I believe Paypal will accept VISA. US postal Global Express (EMS) shipping to Sri Lanka is approximately $20 (lower cost Priority shipping is not available to that country).

[samanpriya]

Thanks your reply Mr. RC-CAM,

That shipping cost is little bit high, but my company has small branch in the Minnesota, and usually we have shipment every Friday to Sri Lanka.
So, how much would be the shipping cost to Minneapolis - Minnesota, and give me instruction how should I place an order for EM 411 unite. (Using VISA card)

[Mr.RC-Cam]

USA shipping is $3.50.

Basic info: Price details and EM-411 availability status is posted in the first post to this thread. To order one of these, please PM me to obtain my Paypal account address.

[Mr.RC-Cam]

I've split off the EB-85A to this new thread: http://www.rc-cam.co...st=0#entry13090

Please continue to use this discussion for the EM-411.

Hello

does anybody knows if this module can be set and left in WAAS mode, even after a shut down, or reset, without the need to be connected to a PC for re-programming ?
