MOUNTING TIPS
When mounting the GPS to your vehicle, place the GPS module (with antenna facing up) outside your vehicle with a clear view of the sky, as far as possible from potential sources of magnetic interference such as motors and speed controllers. For copters and rovers, we recommend elevating the GPS module.
