Re: [Paparazzi-devel] Umarim

Hi Nick,

I think it would be nice if Sparkfun would manufacture some Paparazzi autopilots, although for the people in Europe it would be nicer to have a European supplier as well....
Also I can't say anything regarding the number of boards, I think no-one really has an overview of how many boards are in use and how high the demand is for more.
To me it's also not quite clear what they mean with the frequency of builds, do they simply mean how often they would manufacture a new batch or how often a revised version of the board will be made?

Cheers, Felix

I don't want to tread on anyone's toes (not least the OP or David) but I emailed Sparkfun about the feasibility of doing a production run. There has been a couple of emails back and forth. 

The latest email asked "Do you have any information regarding the board I can pass on to the person who decides these things (amount of boards, frequency of builds, ect?)."

I've given them a bit of background on Paparazzi project, links to the wiki and indicated there seems to be a fair demand for the Umarim but as a casual observer rather that a corer member of paparazzi that is about all i can offer them. 

Does any one have any ideas on further information i can pass to them?

Lastly would a Sparkfun production run even be a good idea? Is the community open to this?  

Regards,

Nick
