[FOSS-GPS] RTKLib and uBlox 7

Weber,

   Well I really don't NEED to; it's more of an experiment to see if it 
will improve the performance of the UAV (likely more trouble than it's 
worth), or if it will improve the positioning quality of the imagery 
acquired from the UAV (it might).

   Currently I've got a uBlox Lea-6H 
(http://www.canadadrones.com/3DR-GPS-LEA-6-p/3dr-gps-lea-6.htm) 
supplying positions to the autopilot, but it has no raw data input(?) or 
output capability so the positions are likely in the +/-3m range (I 
really need to test that too).

Best Regards,
Brent Fraser
