Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between Here3 and Here3+?
The Here3 uses the u-blox M8P GNSS chip with CAN protocol and an ICM20948 IMU, while the Here3+ is an upgraded version featuring the STM32H757 processor, DroneCAN support, a built-in RM3100 magnetometer, and an ICM42688P IMU for improved sensor performance and ArduPilot onboard capability.
Does the Here3 support RTK for centimeter-level accuracy?
Yes. The Here3 supports RTK (Real-Time Kinematic) positioning with an accuracy of 0.025 m (2.5 cm) when paired with a compatible RTK base station such as the Here+ Base RTK Module.
What flight controllers is the Here3 compatible with?
The Here3 is designed for use with CubePilot flight controllers (Cube Orange, Cube Black, etc.) and any ArduPilot or PX4 compatible flight controller that supports CAN/UAVCAN peripherals.
What is the purpose of the iStand?
The Here3 iStand is a purpose-built mounting accessory that elevates the GPS module above the drone frame. This improves sky visibility for satellite acquisition and reduces magnetic interference from motors and ESCs, resulting in better heading accuracy.
What constellations does the Here3 support?
The Here3 simultaneously tracks GPS (L1C/A), GLONASS (L1OF), and BeiDou (B1I) satellite constellations, providing wide coverage and high satellite count for reliable positioning even in partially obstructed environments.
Here3+ GPS Receiver

Under ideal circumstances, the relatively affordable CubePilot Here3+ GPS Module w/ iStand provides location accuracy down to the centimeter level and supports RTK mode. Compared to the original Here+, this variant has better resistance to dust and water, although it isn’t 100% certified waterproof.

The high data rate, upgradeability, noise immunity, and real-time functionality of the Here3+ GPS module are all made possible via the DroneCAN protocol. The system is now compatible with upcoming firmware updates and has switched to the DroneCAN 8 Mbit bus speed.

Here3+ GPS Receiver

The Here3+ GPS module is driven by a dual-core STM32H757 CPU, clocked at 400 MHz, featuring 1 MB of RAM and 2 MB of Flash. Compared to the Here 3 model, which is powered by the STM32F302 CPU, this is a major upgrade.

To meet the needs of advanced navigation, the system also has an integrated motion unit (IMU) with a gyroscope, accelerometer, and compass. Mission Planner will provide access to future system changes.
