MicoAir MG-A01 M10 GPS 25mm Standard Size with Compass QMC5883L Module for FPV/Racing Drones/Robotics/Boats

Description

• Global Navigation System Compatibility: The MG-A01 GNSS module supports major global navigation systems, including GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, and BeiDou. Utilizing the latest technology, it can receive signals from up to 32 satellites simultaneously, providing users with precise and reliable global positioning services.
• High-Speed Navigation Update Rate: Thanks to the special version of the10th generation chipM10050, this module achieves a high navigation update rate of 10Hz, updating position information 10 times per second. This feature makes the MG-A01 ideal for applications in dynamic and rapidly changing environments, such as drone flight and high-speed motion tracking.
• Built-In High-Gain Antenna: The built-in 25 x 25 x 4mm high-gain antenna provides superior signal reception capability for the module. This ensures optimal performance in challenging environments, whether in densely urban areas or in natural settings with dense coverage.
• Power-Off Parameter Saving: The MG-A01 is equipped with built-in flash memory that can save user settings even when the module is powered off. This means users do not need to reconfigure each time, enabling plug-and-play functionality, significantly enhancing user experience and module convenience.
• Wide Flight Control System Compatibility: Compatible with a variety of mainstream flight control software, including INAV, Betaflight, Ardupilot, and PX4. This ensures that the MG-A01 can be easily integrated into a wide range of flight platforms and projects, meeting a broad array of application requirements.
• Ease of Integration Design: The module features a compact design (25 x 25 x 7.8 mm) and lightweight (12g), highlighting its ease of integration. Additionally, we provide a downloadable link for the 3D-printed GPS mount file, allowing users to easily print and install the mount according to their needs.

Introduction

The MG-A01 (M10 Ultra) GNSS module integrates a special version of the 10th generation receiver chip M10050, which operates at a higher frequency than usual, alongside the QMC5883L magnetic sensor. This module supports all L1 GNSS signals (GPS/GLONASS/Galileo/BeiDou) and can use up to 32 satellites simultaneously for navigation. The high-gain 25 x 25 x 4mm patch antenna ensures optimal performance. Built-in flash allows parameters to be retained even if the module loses power.

Why Choose M10 Ultra?

The M10 is the latest GNSS receiver generation, offering faster startup, greater positioning accuracy, and more satellite connections. However, the standard M10 (5Hz) has a lower navigation update rate than the M8 (10Hz) and M9 (25Hz). To address this, the MG-A01 utilizes an enhanced M10 chip with a 10Hz update rate while maintaining 32-satellite tracking.
To overcome M10's navigation update stability issues, ArduPilot developers restricted satellite numbers by disabling BeiDou B1L and GLONASS. However, using the M10 Ultra can achieve this stability without configuration changes.
