I just wonder which is the more stable - expandable option ?

1. To buy one in all board ?
something like
http://www.goodluckbuy.com/crius-all-in ... iwii-.html
or
http://rctimer.com/index.php?gOo=goods_ ... oductname=

2. To buy a 10 DOF IMU + ATMEGA 2560 ??

The 1st option will cost around 70 $
and the 2nd
from
28$ if ill buy http://www.ebay.com/itm/10DOF-axis-IMU- ... 231f19f3e1
to 50$ if ill buy http://www.ebay.com/itm/10DOF-IMU-MPU60 ... 3a763d9b4b

PLUS the cost of the MC around 30$
wich means for the 2nd option (28-50)+30=58 to 80 $ max

Conclusion .... both solutions cost about the same.

BUT
which is the most stable solution ?
the easier to configure and setup ?
the most expandable ?

I just wonder.... and i wanted to share my thoughts with you.
I hope you will share yours ... ;)

Sorry, I don't have any experience with any of the above All-In-One packages but I can say, the IMU6050 is very nice. That is what MiniMollie is using for Gyro and Accelerometer.

P.S. If you are going to buy the all-in-one, I would suggest getting a Mega, that way there is room for growth.

the all-in-one pro with 6050 + ms5611 + 5883 is imho the best buy for the buck atm.

62,95 $ or 50 euro shipped......

Hi I bought the 28$ imu to try out, iv linked it up to my flyduino mega board but it doesn't work as it should. The readings are all over the place and the axis in the GUI don't move with the board. The mag moves but pitch roll are very inconsistant. I have it connected to 5v from the mega board. Also lots of i2c errors present, I must have something wrong but what I don't know.

Any help appreciated.
