Just noticed that the "GPS of choice" for the Pixhawk 2 now appears to be "Here", and that there's an RTK version. Is there any doco on these? In particular the RTK?
You need to be a member of diydrones to add comments!
They are U-blox receivers, and HERE is made by Hex Aero and ProficNC (the makers of Pixhawk). I think they are just reference designs of Ublox with the Pixhawk I2C connector type.. They are known to be some of the best receivers in their form factor.
I would not buy into RTK when you can just implement PPP yourself on the normal receiver and get nearly the same level of accuracy.

Precise Point Positioning, don't think it's as accurate (not far off though) but should be cheaper (I think)
