Sorry, I'm a bit confused. I just got a ELEV-8 and the side panel of the box shows a GPS VPN1513 and a Parallax Altimeter
Module MS5607 and a SainSmart MMA7455 Accelerometer Sensor Module. All of which I also got. :innocent: I have no clue and can find no reference of how to integrate these marketed sensors with the Quad. Can someone point me in the right direction for documentation?

    Congratulations on the Elev-8, I get a lot of enjoyment out of mine. I've had it about 9 months now. Unless something has changed you have the Hoverfly Open flight controller board. That board uses a gyroscope for attitude control and is configured to be able to use a MaxBotix ultrasonic sensor out-of-the-box, but I don't think any of the other modules you list can be simply integrated.

    You can find information on the controller on this page: https://hoverflytech.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/categories/200136586-User-Guides-and-Software

    Let us know how the build goes. There are a lot of helpful people around here.
