naza-m v2 gps direct replacement with ublox m8n ?

[kieranar]

having been out of the drone flying for just over 14 month i dusted of my  dji F550  with naza-m v2 , just notice how poor it is at GPS lock , its possible after the last crash it may have damaged the GPS unit , i can get lock in clear sky in a few minutes but not in our conseratory , which i have always been able to get GPS lock before ,  flight test room !

i have noticed a lot of gps units with the m8n module , has anybody got one working ?  if so which one ?  and how ?

cheers !

Welcome. I think this is the gps I have on my Naza Lite (V2 firmware) https://www.aliexpress.com/item/Foldable-Bracket-Holder-Ublox-M8N-GPS-Compatible-with-DJI-NAZA-Lite-V1-V2-Flight-Controller/32728319412.html?spm=2114.01010208.3.56.GsRIp5&ws_ab_test=searchweb0_0,searchweb201602_2_10065_10068_10000009_10084_10083_10080_10082_10081_10060_10062_10056_10055_10037_10054_10059_10032_10099_10078_10079_10077_10000012_426_10103_10073_10102_10000015_10096_10052_10053_10107_10050_10106_10051,searchweb201603_10,afswitch_4,single_sort_0_default&btsid=c36d973b-4fbb-4743-aebd-bb0ac897fcc0

Not sure it is correct for the genuine V2 but maybe someone else will come along and help.

Just bought 2 of these for my Naza V2 units  as the original ones supplied are much slower to lock on. bargain price they are Neo8 s as confirmed inside the puck on the receiver.

Direct replacement, good reviews on Bangood etc

I can verify that the M8N works brill on Naza V1 and V2, really fast locks with much more sats.. even in difficult locations
