It looks like Flywoo has released a new I2C breakout board to add a barometer (BMP280) and compass (QMC5883L) to a FC with I2C pads. It's 11x15.5mm and weighs 0.6g. MSRP is $9.99.
It's kind of a weird combination, as typically you would want to mount the baro and compass in different locations. The baro should be away from prop wash and ideally covered with a piece of open cell foam to reduce noise (within the stack or against the frame are good spots), while the compass needs to be as far as possible from any wires/motors/sources of interference. I'm guessing they did this just because they both use I2C and can be connected in parallel. It will be interesting to see how people mount this and how it performs.
