One of the many useful third party sites.

well i found this forum today, seems to have its own section dedicated to moding the drone and you can see other peoples ideas and projects (i think the coolest is adding fireworks to it, although i don't know if the drone itself lights it up) but yes, it appears quite a few people have attached a gps to it, one person even went as far as also adding a compass.
On a side note though, i saw someone talking about adding hardware so the drone can detect its surroundings and not crash into anything, so i was just thinking another cool project rather than a gps would be to get it to act like a radar and perhaps send back a stream of what its picking up

and of course, the website; the forum is a part of (it has other useful stuff too of course):
