FOXEER M10Q-250 V2 GPS Module IST8310 Compass GNSS 1.5m Accuracy 5V UART I2C Multi-Constellation For FPV Drone Navigation Setup

FOXEER M10Q-250 V2 GPS + IST8310 Compass Fast, Stable Multi-Constellation PositioningThe FOXEER M10Q-250 V2 combines an M10 10th-generation GNSS solution, a large ceramic patch antenna and an integrated IST8310 compass. Designed for FPV drones, long-range quadcopters, fixed-wing aircraft and UAV projects, it provides reliable positioning and heading data in a compact module.Product Highlights M10 10th-Generation GNSSThe advanced M10 GNSS solution supports multiple satellite constellations for improved satellite availability and stable outdoor positioning.Supported systems:GPS L1GLONASS L1BDS B1GalileoSBAS L1QZSS L1 Integrated IST8310 CompassThe built-in IST8310 magnetometer provides heading information through the I2C interface. It is suitable for flight-control applications that require both position and directional data.Up to 10Hz Update RateThe module supports a 1–10Hz output frequency and operates at 10Hz by default, providing smooth and responsive positioning data for FPV and UAV applications.72-Channel GNSS ReceiverThe 72-channel receiver supports multi-constellation signal reception, helping the module maintain stable satellite tracking in open outdoor environments.High Positioning Accuracy Horizontal positioning accuracy: approximately 1.5m outdoorsSpeed accuracy: 0.05m/sTracking sensitivity: -166dBmCapture sensitivity: -160dBmActual positioning performance may vary depending on satellite visibility, installation location, interference and environmental conditions.Large Ceramic Patch AntennaThe 25mm-class ceramic antenna provides a larger signal-receiving surface than many compact GPS modules, making the M10Q-250 V2 suitable for long-range FPV builds and larger airframes.Lightweight DesignAt approximately 12g, the module adds positioning and compass functions without creating excessive load for the aircraft.Built-In Backup BatteryThe integrated backup battery helps retain positioning data and can reduce reacquisition time after power cycling.Technical Specifications ParameterSpecificationBrandFOXEERModelM10Q-250 V2GNSS ChipM10 10th GenerationSupported FrequenciesGPS L1, GLONASS L1, BDS B1, Galileo, SBAS L1, QZSS L1Channels72Input Voltage5VAntennaCeramic Patch AntennaCompassIST8310Backup BatteryBuilt-InBaud Rate115200bpsProtocolNMEA / UBXOutput Frequency1–10HzDefault Update Rate10HzSpeed Accuracy0.05m/sHorizontal AccuracyApproximately 1.5m OutdoorsTracking Sensitivity-166dBmCapture Sensitivity-160dBmMaximum Dynamic Height50,000mMaximum Dynamic Speed500m/sMaximum Acceleration4GOperating Temperature-40°C to +85°CStorage Temperature-40°C to +105°CDimensions25 × 25 × 8mmWeightApproximately 12gThe dynamic height and speed values are receiver operating limits and do not represent the recommended or legal operating limits of an aircraft.Interface DefinitionThe module uses six connections:Module PinFunctionFlight Controller ConnectionTXGPS Data OutputConnect to Flight Controller RXRXGPS Data InputConnect to Flight Controller TXGNDGroundConnect to GND5VPower InputConnect to Regulated 5VSCLCompass ClockConnect to I2C SCLSDACompass DataConnect to I2C SDAImportant: GPS TX connects to the flight controller RX, and GPS RX connects to the flight controller TX.Installation Recommendations Install the module with the ceramic antenna facing upward.Keep the antenna surface unobstructed with a clear view of the sky.Position the module away from the VTX, ESC, high-current power cables and other sources of electromagnetic interference.Do not mount the module directly beneath carbon-fiber plates or metal parts.Use a regulated 5V power supply.Secure the module firmly using a suitable GPS mount or vibration-resistant adhesive.Perform initial satellite acquisition outdoors in an open area.Remove the propellers before connecting the aircraft to configuration software. Compass OrientationFor the IST8310 compass version:Keep the antenna facing upward.Install the connector toward the aircraft’s forward direction when possible.The commonly specified Betaflight orientation is CW 180° Flip.Verify compass direction in the flight-controller configurator before flight. Orientation settings may vary depending on the actual mounting direction.Flight Controller Configuration GPS Setup Connect the GPS TX and RX wires to an available UART.Enable GPS for the corresponding UART.Select the UBLOX/UBX protocol where supported.Set the baud rate to 115200bps or enable automatic baud detection.Enable automatic GPS configuration if available.Reboot the flight controller.Test the module outdoors and wait for a valid 3D fix. Compass Setup Connect SCL and SDA to the flight controller’s I2C interface.Enable the magnetometer function in compatible firmware.Select or detect the IST8310 compass.Set the correct sensor orientation.Complete compass calibration before use.Available GPS, compass, rescue and navigation functions depend on the selected flight controller and firmware version.Suitable Applications Long-range FPV quadcopters5-inch to 7-inch FPV dronesFreestyle FPV buildsFixed-wing RC aircraftUAV navigation projectsGPS telemetryHome-distance displayGround-speed displayPosition and heading dataCompatible GPS rescue or return functions LED StatusThe onboard indicators provide convenient power and positioning-status feedback. Indicator behavior may depend on the module configuration and firmware.Package Contents FOXEER M10Q-250 V2 GPS + IST8310 Compass Module × Selected QuantityAvailable quantity options:1PCS2PCS3PCS5PCSPlease select the required quantity before placing your order.Important Notes Input voltage is 5V.
