The Matek M8Q-5883 is a GPS and compass combo that provides rock-solid location data for any project.  With built-in noise filters and compatibility with most RC flight controller software (iNav, Betaflight, Ardupilot, etc), this is a great option in any build.

Specifications:

  • 72-channel M8 engine GPS L1C/A, SBAS L1C/A, QZSS L1C/A, QZSS L1 SAIF, GLONASS L1OF, Galileo E1B/C

  • GPS, GLONASS, SBAS, QZSS are enabled by default
  • u-blox M8Q series has no external flash memory
  • Blue PPS LED blinking(1Hz) means 3D fixed
  • update rate 1Hz & baudrate 9600 default
  • Baud 9600~115200 supported by INAV/BF/Ardupilot
  • update rate 5Hz with INAV UBLOX Protocol
  • update rate 10Hz with INAV UBLOX7 Protocol
  • Compass Alignment(Arrow forward and flat mounting): Tilting the magnetometer is strongly discouraged !
    INAV/BetaFLight: CW 270° Flip when flight controller arrow is facing forward also
    Ardupilot/Mission Planner: Rotation None
  • BF doesn’t support GPS position hold and RTH,  GPS Rescue mode is supported by BF3.5 or last.
  • No need compass for Fixed wings with INAV firmware
  • The scratches on ceramic antenna are the result of tuning the antenna by ublox.
  • Make sure to have compass/magnetometer 10cm away from power lines/ESC/motors/iron based material
