Tips

• u-blox M8Q series has no external flash memory
• Compass Alignment(Arrow forward and flat mounting): Ardupilot/Mission Planner: Rotation None
• Make sure to have compass/magnetometer 10cm away from power lines/ESC/motors/iron-based material
• The scratches on the ceramic antenna are the result of tuning the antenna by ublox.
• UART3 MSP Protocol is not implemented for now.
