GY-NEO6M V2 NEO‑6M GPS Module – Precision Positioning for Arduino & Drone Projects
Unlock accurate, real‑time location data with the GY‑NEO6M V2 NEO‑6M GPS module. Designed for hobbyists, makers, and professional UAV developers, this compact board combines a high‑sensitivity active antenna, built‑in flight‑control EEPROM, and dual‑mode RS232/TTL interfaces to deliver reliable positioning from 3 V to 5 V power sources.
Key Highlights
- High‑Performance NEO‑6M Chip – Fast 5 Hz position updates with sub‑meter accuracy.
- Active Antenna – Enhanced signal strength for indoor and outdoor use, reducing drop‑outs.
- Dual Interface – RS232 and TTL (UART) selectable via jumpers for flexible integration.
- Built‑in Flight Control EEPROM – Stores configuration data for MWC APM2.5 and other autopilot systems.
- Wide Voltage Range – Operates reliably from 3 V to 5 V, perfect for Arduino, Raspberry Pi, and 3.3 V/5 V microcontrollers.
- Compact Form Factor – 25 mm × 30 mm board fits tight enclosures on drones and robots.
- Plug‑and‑Play – Pre‑soldered header pins and clear silkscreen for quick prototyping.
