H-RTK F9P is the latest differential high-precision GNSS positioning system series from Holybro. This system provides multi-band RTK with fast convergence times and reliable performance, concurrent reception of GPS, GLONASS, Galileo and BeiDou, and fast update rate for highly dynamic and high volume applications with centimeter-accuracy. It uses a UBLOX ZED-F9P module, a IST8310 compass, and a tri-colored LED indicator. It also has a integrated safety switch for a simple and convenient operation.
We have designed different models of for you to choose, each with different size and antenna design to meet different customer needs.

This model is lower cost, light weight, and has high performance, It can meet the needs of general DIY users. Due to the lower cost, this model can also greatly minimize the cost of large swarm drone projects such as swarm light shows. It has a integrated safety switch and a tri-colored LED indicator, and it is compatible with the open source Pixhawk series flight controller.
Package Included:
H-RTK F9P Rover Lite *1 (Optional )
H-RTK F9P Rover Lite 2nd GPS *1(Optional)
Fixed Carbon Fiber GPS mount(40mm) *1
GPS UART to USB Converter *1(For SKU12017)
USB (type-c)cable *1
This model uses a helical antenna, which has better performance than the lite version. This model can be used both on rover (aircraft) or as base station. The aluminum alloy shell design also has a integrated safety switch and a tri-colored LED indicator, and it is compatible with the open source Pixhawk-Standard Flight Controller flight controller.
