Looking for a reliable solution for centimeter precision drone positioning? The Leica GS18 T LTE & UHF Unlimited receiver is your choice for professional applications. This compact RTK antenna easily integrates with quadcopters. It opens up new opportunities in aerial photography and geodesy. Use it where maximum data accuracy is needed.

Where is this device used?

• High-precision topographic survey. Creation of detailed digital elevation models (DEM) and terrain (DTM).

• Engineering surveys. Accurate determination of the coordinates of infrastructure objects and boundaries.

• Construction control. Monitoring of objects, carrying out design points in situ.

• Agriculture. Accurate field mapping, yield analysis.

• Mapping. Creation and updating of high accuracy maps.

• Object monitoring. Accurate volume measurement, deformation control.

This receiver is essential for any job requiring centimeter-scale geospatial precision from the air. It provides quality data quickly and efficiently. Increase the productivity of your UAV projects.

Key parameters 

• Highest RTK accuracy: up to 8 mm horizontally and 15 mm vertically in real time.

• Multichannel and frequencies: Supports all major GNSS (GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, BeiDou) and L1/L2/L5 signals.

• Built-in LTE cellular module: direct access to VRS/MAX/MAX network corrections without a base station.

• Compactness and weight: lightweight design (only 0.65 kg) and small dimensions for installation on a drone.

• IP65 protection: Reliable protection against dust and water jets for working in difficult conditions.

Your best choice

This receiver offers unique benefits to drone users. Its main advantage is the built-in LTE modem. This provides access to corrections via the Internet. You don't need your own base station nearby. The logistics of work in the field are greatly simplified.

Ease of use is another important plus. The receiver operates on a plug-and-play basis. Minimal setup required before flight. Fast RTK initialization saves time. Allows you to make more flights per day.

High reliability guarantees signal stability. This is critical to the continuous operation of the drone. Tilt Compensation Technology (T-CoM) is a unique feature. It compensates for antenna tilt up to 15°. This gives accurate coordinates even with imperfect installation. Ideal for dynamic quadcopter flights.

An "Unlimited" license means no hidden fees. You get full access to all features forever. There are no annual license fees. This is a profitable investment in the long term. Reduces total cost of equipment ownership.
