GPS module for Pixhawk Readytosky Ublox NEO-M8N

Order the original Readytosky Ublox NEO-M8N GPS module - precise positioning for your drone

The GPS module for the Pixhawk Readytosky NEO-M8N is a key component for autonomous flight. It provides accurate location of your drone. The module is designed to work with the popular Pixhawk controllers. The device supports several satellite systems simultaneously. This guarantees high reliability and speed of positioning. Your copter will know its exact location.

The module is based on the modern Ublox NEO-M8N chipset. This chip features low power consumption and high sensitivity. It quickly picks up satellite signals even in difficult conditions. Positioning accuracy reaches several meters. This is important for stable position holding and point-by-point flight.

Technical features and important advantages

The device supports all major navigation systems. These are GPS, GLONASS, BeiDou and Galileo. The number of visible satellites will always be maximum. The module has a built-in digital compass (magnetometer). It determines the vehicle's course relative to the north. This is necessary for the autopilot functions to work correctly.

There is a safety switch on the board. It allows you to turn off the motors in an emergency. This is an important function for ensuring flight safety. The module is equipped with LED status indicators. They show the satellite search process and operating mode.
