Introduction

The I2C-GPS NAV module works with all 328P-based MWC flight controllers (with magnetic reluctance) to provide functions including GPS positioning, return-to-home, automatic waypoint flight, etc. For convenience, it’s recommended to be used with the CN-06 GPS receiver and the included wires, so you don't need to change the wires. The I2C port on the module can be connected to an anti-reverse cable, thus to easy refit the flight controller. Besides, it matches with any 10Hz GPS receiver with a baud rate of 11520.

Navigation Board LED Status Indication (taking firmware 2.0 as an example):

1. Initialization: Blinks once per second, lasts about 6 times; 2. Waiting for GPS positioning: constantly brightens for 2 seconds, blinks for one second, and continues the constant lighting up, until the GPS positioning is completed 3. GPS positioning completed: Blinks three times per second – from then on GPS-related functions are active for the flight controller, indicating at least 5 satellites are effectively connected. Flight Controller LED Status Indication: In the locked (disarmed) mode, the LED blinks quickly when it's effectively connected to 4 satellites.
