Type of review

This is a heck of a deal for the price. The G7020 chipset has support under Linux with gpsd, and worked well. As you might expect, had trouble getting a first fix indoors, but once it had a fix, held on pretty well. This has a small battery or supercap for storing almanac while turned off/offline for *short* periods of time.

Pros
  • The active antenna's design reduces signal loss and enhances overall performance
Cons
  • Limited compatibility with cameras and gimbals

Buyer Beware: my feedback

I bought this because many of the comments about this product said it was easy to use, including with an Arduinio, except the fine print says it's a replacement part for something NOT Arduino, so there are no official schematics, API, or sample code to copy on the company's website (or anywhere else) to be able to use it on an Arduino. I also noticed (too late) that some of the photos by commenters was not of the product listed or received, and failing to notice that is a mistake I should not…

Pros
  • The module's low power consumption makes it energy-efficient
Cons
  • Easy to lose signal while flying in tight spaces
