What is RTK? Why does my device need an RTK system?
RTK (Real-Time Kinematic Positioning) is a high-precision kinematic measurement technology that uses synchronous observation of the RTK base station and the mobile station and real-time kinematic processing to calculate the precise position and orientation of the device in real time. The positioning capability of the RTK system is higher than that of the traditional GPS system, reaching the centimeter level. The RTK system has stronger real-time performance and higher measurement efficiency, which can greatly shorten the measurement time. It is very beneficial for scenarios that require rapid acquisition of high-precision positioning information, such as land surveying, building surveying, mining surveying, road construction, urban planning, etc.

What are the highlights and advantages of SIYI RTK Positioning and Orientation Module?
What are the highlights and advantages of SIYI RTK Positioning and Orientation Module?
Only a single module can achieve dual antenna orientation, efficient RTK solution, fast surveying, and RTK satellite number can reach 50+. Equipped with RM3100 industrial-level compass to provide reliable backup redundancy, dual data interface compatible with Dronecan protocol.
Q3
How does the SIYI RTK Positioning & Orientation module work? Do I need to purchase other equipment to use it?
How does the SIYI RTK Positioning & Orientation module work? Do I need to purchase other equipment to use it?
When only a single module and dual antennas are used, the orientation function can be achieved, and the magnetic compass can be replaced. In this case, it is generally used together with the flight controller. It is recommended to use SIYI N7 autopilot. Using together with GCS and network RTK base station to achieve centimeter-level RTK positioning. In this case, it is recommended to use an SIYI handheld ground station or an SIYI link. Using together with RTK base station is the most common situation, which is used to flexibly achieve centimeter-level RTK positioning. It is recommended to use SIYI F9P RTK base station.
Q4
I already got a flight controller, is the SIYI RTK Positioning & Orientation module compatible with it?
I already got a flight controller, is the SIYI RTK Positioning & Orientation module compatible with it?
SIYI RTK Positioning & Orientation module is compatible with ArduPilot / PX4 open-source flight control.
Q5
