It has built-in stabilization, making it a full-functional autopilot — no third-party stabilization unit required. It uses the same $25 ArduPilot hardware, so all existing owners should be able to upgrade without issue. This is pretty amazing — the functionality of a >$1,000 autopilot for less than $100!
