Yes it's nuts! You need a more expensive GPS chip (eg Ublox 9 series), and a base station, but is great for certain applications.

- Waterluvian 2y agoYears ago I experimented with this really cheap GPS. Pixi or something like that. It had poor ergonomics and as difficult to establish a connection. But once it worked it was accurate. Was like 1/10th the cost. Also there’s VRS RTK without a base station (but you need internet and a subscription) for some reasons. Works just as well. It’s basically turn key.
- foobarbecue 2y agoYeah, I remember the Pixi (sp?) kickstarter, back in the heyday of ArduCopter. There was a brief period there where open-source, open-hardware, DIY got you the best results for multicopters.
