Overview
Axisflying M10 GPS Module with compass is a compact, multi-constellation GPS module designed for FPV freestyle and long-range drones. It integrates the M10050-KB GNSS chip and an internal electronic compass (QMC5883), offering UART GPS output and I2C compass data for reliable positioning and heading on flight controllers. The module operates at DC 3.6V–5.5V (typical 5.0V) with 3.3V TTL output level and supports NMEA/UBX protocols.
Key Features
