GPS for Flight-Ctrl now with support of the european Galileo systems.
GPS receiver of the latest generation with
mounted GPS Shield and
two integrated compass-sensors for redandant setup.
It uses the normal American GPS satellites, but it can parallel receive the Russian
GLONASS and european Galileo or chinese BeiDou satellite system.
This increase the satellite available for navigation, especially in areas with inadequate GPS coverage or signal shading (mountains, tall buildings) (see pictures)
For the suppression of external interference sources (such as video transmitters) a
HF preamplifier and a
SAW filter was integrated.
On the bottom side there is a mounting space for the optional external compass
The GPS shield increases the signal quality of the receiving satellites.
Redundant connectivity
- two GPS-connections for two FlightControls
- two independent compass sensors for a redundant Master/Slave setup
- also usable with only one Flight-Ctrl (no redandancy)
Scope of delivery
- 1x board (assembled)

Hint
- Please do not touch the antenna with your fingers because of ESD. This could destroy the GPS modul.
