Matek M10Q-5883 GNSS & Compass Module

The Matek M10Q-5883 combines a u-blox SAM-M10Q GNSS receiver with a QMC5883L compass on a single small module, giving flight controllers the position and heading data needed for GPS Rescue, Position Hold and autonomous navigation modes.

Key features

• u-blox SAM-M10Q chipset tracks GPS, GLONASS, Galileo and BeiDou constellations for a fast, stable fix.
• Integrated QMC5883L magnetometer supplies heading data on the same board, saving a separate compass module.
• Compact footprint suits both freestyle quads and longer-range fixed-wing or GPS Rescue builds.
• Connects to Betaflight, INAV or ArduPilot flight controllers over UART.

Mount the compass away from power wiring and motors to avoid magnetic interference on the heading reading.
