Could you not source the MPU-9150 and substitute it? I am by no means capable of doing this myself, but if You are inclined, sourcing the parts should be easy.
I take it you have been following the thread on the Frontier site?
Their prebuilt one isnt as expensive as trackIR, but 60 dollars is still is quite expensive for what it is.
I know what an MPU board generally costs, because I use similar boards for my hobby, multicopters.
An arduino board with identical sensors generally goes for around 15 to 20 dollars these days.
Id gladly just buy their PCB and enclosure, and just source/solder the whole thing myself,
but the problem is they arent being specific enough about which parts would actually fit in the enclosure.
I suppose I could just shrinkwrap the darn thing. :')
FD has a thread about it? I came to know about it through reddit, myself.
Maybe I should check it out.
