Product Showcase: SparkFun RTK mosaic-X5

Find it here: www.sparkfun.com/products/23748
Designed and manufactured in Boulder, Colorado, USA, the SparkFun RTK mosaic-X5 is the perfect solution for your high-precision positioning and navigation needs. Based on the multi-constellation, multi-frequency, L1/L2/L5-ready mosaic-X5 from Septentrio, this is our most advanced RTK product to date.

It may be not cheap if you're used to $25 boards; but it is DAMN cheap compared to other high precision GNSS solutions. The Septentrio mosaic-x5 is one amazing receiver.

Hi Nathan. Can you demonstrate how this can be used with a PPK/RTK equipped drone? Most PPK/RTK drones use the RTCM3 protocol. Great product as always.

Nathan - take it a step further, you've got precise GNSS figured out and I can tell you it works well, even in Canada where things are cold and houses are expense LOL. Now, lets aim to create some precise drones that can take accurate positions using these base stations. Then lets add a nice lidar to it and voila, we are now mapping mother earth through the power of open source and man, I am game if you are haha.

Maybe Sparkfun should have a second UA-cam channel for hyper-expensive GNSS/RTK stuff. Kinda seems like a whole different business.

Maybe you take PNT for granted too much

Nice CERN T-shirt (I've got one, too). I work on CMS (the detector on the back of your shirt).

Very interesting. Is the NMEA output 0183 or 2000 ?

[@jwangosho]

An included 4G module would be great.

Does it support Galileo HAS?

Ah, this will be quickly weaponized in Ukraine :) 🇺🇦
