ArduPilot Shield Expansion
Hello:
Can an ArduPilot support an additional shield kit, (aka "shield stacking"), such as the AdaFruit Motor Shield? This would be additional to the ArduPilot Shield Kit shown here:
The AdaFruit Motor Shield is available here:
Thank you.

Our shields and board are not the same size as standard Arduino boards. You can't use other shields.

I see, thanks for the quick reply! Does the ArduPilot support multiple shields? I don't quite understand how shields are powered and interfaced.

No it doesn't. But the next version, ArduPilot Mega, will. Different shields have different ways of interfacing with the main board and other shields, depending on what makes the most sense: serial, I2C, high/low pins, SPI, etc...
