Note:

APM 2.5 and APM 2.0 have an internal compass (unlike APM 2.6) which must be disabled by cutting a trace before you can connect the 3DR UBlox GPS + Compass module (the video here shows how).
Other than disabling the internal compass, connecting the UBlox is the same for APM2.0/APM2.5 as for APM2.6.
