Hi Tom,

Will you be making the extension board available alone for existing Gluon users? I only see the complete bundle but no separate board in the shop.

Thanks,

Hi Olivier,

The extension board is only 100% compatible with the latest hardware revision.

The 5V and VBAT pins (next to the servo pins) are now joined from 2x2pins to 1x3 pins, so it won't be a direct fit for your module. If you don't mind this (you could fit a wire for example), send me a message for an extension board!

If I purchase the expansion board kit, does anyone have suggestions to which xbee modules I should use? Or where could I get the same XBee 2.4GHz 60mW modules that will be included in the Ground Control station kit?

Thanks

Hi,
I would propose you to buy the 60mW ones at Sparkfun. They are pretty cheap. You would only need to configure them yourself.
