Thank you, appreciated.Correct... one cable, plug and play
It is written in the description that the product "provides a higher gain compared to any of its predecessors (from 1.5dBi to 5dBi) and using the legendary Honeywell HMC5983 that is no longer in production."mRo is now selling a mRo GPS u-Blox Neo-M8N + HMC5983 Compass Module for the same price as the normal mRo GPS u-Blox Neo-M8N.
Is there any benfit in the compass module ?
Am i wrong, or is the compass normally build inside the PH2 ?
I suppose that we could ask MRobotics all of these questions and receive and answer from the source.i think this means the Taoglas antenna provides a higher gain, but for what is the compass IC on the board ?
Morning all aCiD here, this will be my first post here so please bare with me. I just picked up Solo from Best Buy (Never owned or flew a drone before), bought some extra Alfa antennas for extra range got the gimbal and an extra battery as a deal from BB, ordered the mRo GPS and my question is do I have to mess around with any settings of the GPS? Or is it a straight plug and play, get the old gps out put the new one in connect the cables and that's it right? is that correct or am I missing something?
The Solo compass (magnetometer) is in one of the legs...Is there any benfit in the compass module ?

The new GPS module isn't for Solo. You'll notice the connector is completely different. It would be for using with other autopilots like a Pixhawk or APM.
The product description of mRo GPS u-Blox Neo-M8N + HMC5983 Compass reads: Our testings in SOLO gave us an average HDOP of '0.6', which is considered ideal conditions.The new GPS module isn't for Solo. You'll notice the connector is completely different. It would be for using with other autopilots like a Pixhawk or APM.
All the other M8N modules for other things like Pixhawk, Pixracer, APM, etc. are also compatible with Solo too with a little work and questionable quality and much lower price.
