The Parrot AR2.0 boards and the ultrasonic sensor.

Need to know what ribbons required to connect it to the board.

Also need to know if it wil 100%.

Is there compatible camera sensors I can use as I understand the boards uses 2 but I only have 1 for 1 board so my priority is get this ultrasonic sensor attached and this hoard working will these even work with out the sensors?

Need to know similar camera sensors as this is all priced crazy.

Th boards £100 the 2nd part of the boards 50 the sensors 25 a piece. Can buy hole drone cheaper.

These board will let me use my phone to control the quad, also have gps ect.

Id like to add rf to these if possible too but not sure how far or when to move on these as the sensors leave questions. Again seller sold me boards knowing id need sensors but kept the sensors back basicly expecting me to go back and buy them individually. The invluded 1 camera with all 4 boards and want 5 each camera now"the small type" its a deal but they shouldve threw them in.

Id like to have all 3 in working 180to250 size frames eventually.

Not decided what my main 1st flight control boards will be yet. I do have apm2.6 on way but that was intended for 300 build and im thinking go totaly doy arduino on a 300 build.

Will have to see when it arrives as no way it will go on 210 frame. I do have 250 frame on way. Ive bought a few and been treated like a payday loan and never get the product. I need custom frames tbh but thinking go for a bunch of qav250 carbon frames. Just have lots of back ups but I already thought to replace broken arms with rotar arms but wont be able to use them for racing. think im do the 300 buold woth rotar arms and 1 servo.

Hmm Just waiting for escs, apm, motors, straps and looking to switch the dx6 or get a tx and all batteries asap oh yup need 2x glb 2204 motors not sure if the exact same as mt2204 bottom lip is different. may just use them with a paor of mt2204.

Will be looking to get rs2205 kind of motors as I get other things out the way. Not enough reviews on motors so not onvesting heavily. Would love to get real good motors that i could rebuild and set up with built in escs. Food for thought but not sure how good built in escs are for quadcopters or how quick they respond ect, open to options on these and may try a set. its no good if there not competative though as there price you can get good race motors all day.

I will sort tx rx and receivers out then get batts, thinking diy bat packs too but could do with some guidance.

Thabks for taking the time to look. Im mainly here to get some help with my builds thats all. Nothing but bad experiences so far, industry in a hole just wants to make quick buck from you and couldnt care if the product is for you or ot or if it even works, hence me not going x9 straight away. people get brand new broke txs and get stuck with them. Its wrong..

Im real interested in putting together a nano all in 1 with gps, escs,gyro ect all in 1 small reliable systems.

May get boards made for myself as cheap naze32 ect dont got gos right? gps as safety feature is a must on all my builds. Also looking for cheaper solutions on modules. Theres different types. I understand I need gos with compass for amp2.6 which i think is neo7 ublox or above. id like to know if lower end models can be used. I just want failsafe return home or return to tx if that makes sense.

Want to add hos to al builds so need a cheap option module I can buy a few of. same may apply to gyros, borametric I understand the 280 bora and the 6050 gyro are best but need guidance and to know if any cheap nazeor cc3d boards support my needs otherwise im looking to diy flight controlers with gps, gyros ect and bulk buy few of each.

Think thats about it. Please comment your thoughts as I really need guidance. Cant see why I cant just plug tablets into my tx and rx and control with them which is exactly what the parrot ar2.0 boards should do.
