Hi Guys
I have an original Revo board and flew it in attitude mode for some months on the original openpilot GCS system.  I then left the hobby for a couple of years for medical reasons. Those are resolved now and I want to get back into the hobby. 
My questions are:
Is the original Revo board OK with the newer Librepilot GCS?
I want to move to GPS with autonomous flight. What additional equipment do I need?
With regard to FPS, are there apps available to give a sophisticated FPS experience eg. Camera view, telemetry on screen etc.  I'm thinking similar to the DJI Phanton FPV scene.

I'm sure I'll have many more questions as I move through this process so thank you in anticipation for your reponces.

Regards to all

Ken

Hi Ken,

Is the original Revo board OK with the newer Librepilot GCS? Yes, no Problem.
I want to move to GPS with autonomous flight. What additional equipment do I need? Best thing to do is to get a DJI/Naza GPS.
With regard to FPS, are there apps available to give a sophisticated FPS experience eg. Camera view, telemetry on screen etc.  I'm thinking similar to the DJI Phanton FPV scene. Read here: https://librepilot.atlassian.net/wiki/x/CABv

A little clarification.  :)

The coming release of LibrePilot supports DJI/Naza GPS units, but 15.09 does not.  These GPSs include a mag, and only require one port total to talk to both GPS and mag, like OP GPSv9.  These DJI/Naza GPSs seem to be popular here.  Clones are available from about $25 (shipped) and up.  Authentic DJI/Naza GPSs are available from about $43 (shipped) and up.
