Foxeer M10Q 250 GPS 5883 Compass

The Foxeer M10Q 250 is a mid-sized GPS and compass module built around the 10th-generation u-blox M10 chipset. Designed for 5-inch to 7-inch long-range FPV drones, cinelifters, and fixed-wing builds, it provides fast satellite locks and precise heading data necessary for reliable Betaflight rescue modes or INAV autonomous waypoints.

Key features

• 10th-generation u-blox M10 architecture for concurrent multi-constellation tracking (GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, and BDS).

• Integrated QMC5883 compass communicates over I2C to provide accurate directional orientation.

• Large 25x25mm ceramic patch antenna yields significantly higher signal gain and faster cold-start locks compared to micro 12mm or 18mm modules.

• Includes a pre-crimped 6-pin SH1.0 connector alongside direct solder pads for versatile flight controller wiring.

For accurate magnetometer readings, ensure the module is mounted as far away as possible from high-current battery leads, ESCs, and VTX antennas to minimise electromagnetic interference.
