GNSS, GPS plus other constellations depends on the receiver. Even drones or consumer ones support that these days, some bigger drones even support L5 bands.
- t0mas88 3y agoConsumer GNSS devices are developed a lot quicker than aviation GPS receivers due to high cost and strict certification requirements. So your 100 dollar drone very likely has a receiver with more features than a 100 million dollar airliner. And that drone is probably made recently, but airliners fly for 30 years.
