The ArduSimple GNSS Compass Starter Kit is a ready-to-use package designed to provide both accurate heading and precise positioning for professional unmanned systems. It includes a dual-antenna GPS/RTK receiver and two lightweight triple-band GPS/RTK antennas, delivering a complete setup for immediate evaluation and integration. The system calculates true north with sub-0.1° accuracy and does not require calibration, eliminating drift and long-term alignment errors common in IMU- or magnetometer-based systems.
The kit is ideal for complementing autopilots where reliable YAW and position information are essential. It provides one-meter standalone positioning accuracy and achieves centimeter-level precision when linked to an RTK base station. Supporting multi-constellation operation (GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, BeiDou, QZSS, and NavIC), the kit connects easily to Arduino, STM32 Nucleo, Raspberry Pi, Nvidia Jetson, ROS, and Pixhawk/ArduPilot platforms. Its plug-and-play capability with PCs or powerbanks makes it an accessible solution for developers, integrators, and research teams advancing unmanned vehicle navigation and control.
Included in kit:
- 1 simpleRTK3B Compass board (UM982)
- 2 RTK tripleband + L-band external helical GNSS antenna with SMA connector
- 2 SMA antenna RF cable extender 0.5 meter
