Steve,

Do they include any software (like ground station or optimization)? Also, I wouldn't know what to offer. Do you have an asking price?

Thanks!

I know the paperwork is a nuisance, but beyond my control.
Let's say I'll let them go for 1/2 price (list price is $5500).
Includes MicroPilot's "Horizon" ground control software.

I have v3.3 but I suppose you can get the latest version from MicroPilot if you sign up for software maintenance.

UPDATE:

Thanks to those who contacted me and expressed interest. After some inquiries with MicroPilot, it seems that to transfer the licence and get a current maintenance contract with software updates and support costs 4X the normal maintenance fee. That pretty much puts it out of reach for someone looking for a cheap second-hand commercial autopilot.

But maybe there is somebody out there that already has a support contract with MP and is interested in additional autopilots. In the meantime, they sit here on the shelf.

   I still dream of owning one of these someday.

I wonder what it would cost to send one in and have it upgraded to the Heli ver.

Hi Steve,

Do you still have the 2028 boards?

I am interested and will take care of the paperwork if we decide on a price.

Please let me have the serial numbers so I can check with Micropilot if the version is compatible with my needs. (I am sure they are if you have Horizon 3.3)

let me know.

Thanks.
