NEO-6M GPS Module with EPROM

Product Description

NEO-6M TTL GPS Module with EPROM uses the latest technology from Ublox to give the best possible positioning information and includes a larger built-in 25 x 25mm active GPS antenna with a UART TTL socket. A battery is also included so that you can obtain a GPS lock faster. This is an updated GPS module that can be used with Ardupilot mega v2. This GPS module gives the best possible position information, allowing for better performance with your Ardupilot or other Multirotor control platform.

The Ublox GPS module has serial TTL output, it has four pins: TX, RX, VCC, and GND. You can download the u-centre software for configuring the GPS and changing the settings and much more. It is really good software (see link below).

NOTE:  

Ublox NEO-6M GPS Module IS NOT COMPATIBLE WITH APM 2.8 FLIGHT CONTROLLER.
