Review: Works great with apm 2.8 - I have read that some users have had an issue with this unit. I can say I have had no issues with the gps unit for now. I really like the stand. It is very strong and does not flex or wobble. No vibrations which is what you want for a quadcopter. The stand is much better than the one that comes with the other gps units. The common one that folds up and down. I had this gps stand in the past and did not like it. This one is much better quality. I can get 8-10 satellites in my room. Outside I have had no issues in any gps mode. I did forget to calibrate my gps compass by mistake and my drone crashed, but this was my fault. After fixing everything and calibrating my gps compass. I have had no issues in loiter mode.
Review: Correct Wiring and Information - Got it working for my custom 6' quadcopter. Betaflight only recognizes the GPS module. You will need to use iNAV to recognize both the GPS and MAG modules of the unit. Here is the correct wiring labels: Red: 3.3v or 5v Black: Ground GPS Green: TX (connect to RX) Yellow: RX (connect to TX) Magnometer (only works with INAV) White: SDA Orange: SCL Your welcome!! :)

## Features

- ★M8N GPS Module for APM2.6 APM2.8 Flight Controller.
- ★A new generation M8N GPS Module,with low power consumption and high precision.
- ★The M8N and ceramic antenna make this a very accurate receiver,fast locks & lots of satellites.
- ★★★Note:it is default for APM flight controller,if you use with Pixhawk flight controller,you need to change the connector by yourself.
- ★★★Note:When use 2.8 boards with our GPS module must remove the jumper,if you need to calibrate,make the control and GPS compass direction same and keep the two position fixed(cannot make any move,must fix them on quadcopter and then calibrate,or it will be failed.)

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great GPS module. Solid and sturdy.
*by D***E on November 19, 2018*

This GPS module includes a compass which is great. The mount is metal and protects it really well but is heavy so I won't be using it. I pulled it apart and here are the wire color codes. I haven't finished my build yet but here is what you need to know to get it working. Red: 3.3v (Labeled VCC) Black: Ground Yellow: RX (connect to TX1 or TX6 [match with green; whichever is not serial RX]) Green: TX (connect to RX or RX6 [whichever is not serial RX]) White: SDA (Connect to RX3) Orange: SCL (Connect to TX3) OMNIBUS F4, AIRBOT F4 and ASGARD variants with TX3/RX3 pads/Through Holes, configure them as I2C2 (SCL = TX3 and SDA = RX3). I am using an HGLRC F4 Flame In CLI: resource I2C_SCL 2 B10 resource I2C_SDA 2 B11 I am using Inav From CLI # get mag #these values are specific to your build and how you mount the gps compass, set to default/auto then test it and change until it is correct align_mag = CW270FLIP Allowed values: DEFAULT, CW0, CW90, CW180, CW270, CW0FLIP, CW90FLIP, CW180FLIP, CW270FLIP mag_hardware = HMC5883 Allowed values: NONE, AUTO, HMC5883, AK8975, GPSMAG, MAG3110, AK8963, IST8310, QMC5883, FAKE mag_declination = 0 Allowed range: -18000 - 18000 magzero_x = 43 Allowed range: -32768 - 32767 magzero_y = -47 Allowed range: -32768 - 32767 magzero_z = -129 Allowed range: -32768 - 32767 mag_calibration_time = 30 Allowed range: 30 - 120 imu_dcm_kp_mag = 10000 Allowed range: 0 - 65535 imu_dcm_ki_mag = 0 Allowed range: 0 - 65535 inav_auto_mag_decl = ON Allowed values: OFF, ON
