...you lost me after that. The M8N order page asks which cable I want when I order. DF13 isn't that list. If I am upgrading Solo which is the one I want / which is the easiest to swap. Does it even matter which? Do they all require modification (soldering etc.)?
- Mega EZ3 blue black cable
- ReadyToFlyer/APM 2.5,2.6,2.7 cable
- Mega 2.0 (dupont ends)
- RTFHawk cable
Sorry if I wasn't clear on that.
I'm talking about if you have a M8N module for a Pixhawk and want to convert it for use on Solo.
Some people have a few different GPS modules laying around from building
other "
Plastic Gizmos that Fly".

Solo uses 1.25mm pitch
CLIK-Mate 6-Pin connector.
Pixhawk uses 1.25mm pitch
DF13.
Most generic GPS Modules, like the GYGPSV5-NEO M8N, use 1.25mm pitch
PicoBlade.
Some aftermarket M8N Modules have a 1.0mm pitch
SH.
If you are ordering a new cable, you would need to change one end no matter which one you order.
AFAIK, no one makes a
SH/DF13/PicoBlade to
CLIK-Mate cable yet.
FYI:
JST makes the
SH Connector.
Hirose makes the
DF13.
Molex makes the
CLIK-Mate and
PicoBlade.
If anyone wants to put together a minimum order,
www.compatiblecable.com is willing to build a batch of custom
SH or
DF13 or
PicoBlade to
CLIK-Mate 6-Pin cables with a ferrite bead for this.
I was going to do it until I got tired of the Gimbal delays and moved on to other things.
You would need to settle in on one M8N Module and know what connector it has mounted on it.
