Newer revision!
We added a micro USB port that enables you to access all u-Blox features via u-Center and power the device. Please refer to this document if you have driver issues. We also added the latest Taoglas Antenna tuned for GPS + GLONASS, which provides a higher gain compared to any of its predecessors (from 1.5dBi to 5dBi).

The mRo GPS NEO-M8N is a professional grade, notably robust GPS system capable of sensing USA (GPS), Russian (GLONASS) and European (Galileo) constellations at the same time. You can optionally enable the Chinese (Bai Du) constellation in exchange of disabling GLONASS. This solution will provide you with an astonishingly accurate position and fast satellite acquisition. Our testing in SOLO gave us an average HDOP of '0.6', which is considered ideal conditions. Also, we were able to fix 20 satellites out of the box and with no shield (clear sky conditions, shielding not needed but recommended).

uBlox helped us with the inspection of this board. We followed all of its recommendations, plus, we added our own criteria to make sure we are providing you with a superb module.
This release does not include cables; we expect you to use the same GPS cable included in your SOLO. This unit can be used in other products as well by using our special adapters indicated at the beginning of the text.
This revision also features an "extended" hole that allows symmetrical placement of the 4x screw set, without removing SOLO compatibility (which has asymmetrical screw separation).

You can read more about all of its features on the official u-Blox web page here. Remember we are using NEO-M8N-01, 'Professional grade.'

5 of 5 Amazing!!! March 9, 2021
Reviewer: Mark Taylor from TURTLETOWN, TN United States  
Just two things, first the shipping was ridiculous fast! It arrived in just 3 days.
Second, my Solo now tones a GPS lock before it even connects to the transmitter. That is lightning fast!
If you're still flying a Solo this upgrade is a "no brainer".

5 of 5 Easy, amazing upgrade! November 18, 2019
Reviewer: Tom from Chiloquin, OR USA  
An incredibly easy swap yields triple or quadruple satellite acquisition in a fraction of the time. Made in the USA by people who previously worked for 3DR.
Excellent product all around.

5 of 5 3DR Solo Major Upgrade for GPS March 6, 2019
Reviewer: Richard Bogue from Danville , GA United States  
This is a very easy upgrade for the GPS unit inside the head of the 3DR Solo. Why I say major is because it gives the range of satellites a major boost. Well worth the money time and effort to make the change.

5 of 5 3DR Solo monster!!! November 22, 2018
Reviewer: Raul Llatas from Lima, Lima Peru  
A few months ago I bought this new GPS for my SOLO, it is spectacular, I take 16 satellites in 45 seconds and in the outdoor work up to 24 satellites. It's great, totally recommended.
It would be great if mRo made a great mRo RTK for SOLO.
