C-RTK 9P RTK Receiver

Description

The CUAV C-RTK 9P GPS receiver is an RTK GPS module designed by CUAV for the professional market. It uses u-blox's F9P module, supports multi-satellite multi-frequency, and uses advanced RTK algorithms. It can build an RTK system with two identical C-RTK 9P modules. Using it, the PX4 can achieve centimeter-accurate position in seconds, which is much more accurate than the average GPS, and faster and more convenient than the previous generation M8P module.

[!NOTE] Due to product update and iteration, C-RTK 9P has been discontinued; it is recommended to replace it with C-RTK 9Ps.

Pinouts

Hardware connection

AS RTK BASE

• Connect C-RTK 9P and telemetry to PC with USB cable

[!NOTE] Please set up the rtk base station in an unobstructed outdoor area to obtain a good satellite search signal.

You need to use Mission Planner/QGroundControl for base station setup.

• Set base station in Missionplanner
• Set base station in QGroundcontrol

AS Rover

[!NOTE] The package contains special cables for different flight controllers, please use different wiring according to your flight controller selection.

Connect to V5+/v5 nano

The C-RTK 9P (Rover) 10P cable is connected to the flight controller GPS&SAFETY interface; the 4P cable is connected to the v5+/v5 nano series flight control UART4 interface, and the TYPE C interface is connected to the C-RTK 9P.

• Telemetry(air) connected to the TELEM (radio) interface.

Connect to Pixhack

C-RTK 9p(Rover) 6P cable is connected to flight controller GPS interface; 4P cable is connected to flight controller’s ser4/5, and TYPE C interface is connected to C-RTK 9p.

• Telemetry(air) connected to the TELEM (radio) interface.

Connect to other flight controllers

[!NOTE] If you are connecting to other flight controllers, please choose the C-RTK 9P (for V5+) kit, which contains wires to connect to other PX4 flight controls (can be used to connect to Pixhawk v6x or other flight controllers), usually you don't need to modify the wire).
