Detailed Information

HolyBro DroneCAN RM3100 – Your UAV’s North Star!

Tired of janky drones drifting aimlessly, getting disoriented or experiencing magnetic disturbances from the motor coils and metal parts?  You’ve likely seen your unmanned vehicle lose its way due to its average compass module’s inability to maintain accurate orientation calculations. Ever imagine a seamless flight, a smart vehicle navigating waypoints with little magnetic interference, or a compass that doesn’t hug up your flight controller’s serial ports?

Navigate the solution with the Holybro DroneCAN RM3100, the professional-grade compass module you’ve been dreaming of.

Product Highlights

  • Absolute Precision: Adept with the art of precision, the Holybro DroneCAN RM3100 uses proprietary magneto-inductive technology for exact magnetic field measurements. It offers an impressive signal-to-noise ratio that provides professional-grade heading accuracy and perfect orientation for your vehicle.
  • Metal-proof: Forget about the magnetic disturbances from motor coils and metal parts. This pro-grade compass module gives your drone the freedom to navigate through waypoints with minimal magnetic disturbance. All you need to do is place the module at a safe distance from metallic parts.
  • High Resolution & Repeatable: Its superior resolution of 10nT and ultra-low magnetic hysteresis make this compass module a boon for applications that demand high heading accuracy.

Why DroneCAN?

The DroneCAN is not just a CAN protocol. It’s the CAN protocol, reigning as the prime choice for ArduPilot and PX4 projects when it comes to smooth communication with CAN peripherals. It’s not just us saying that; ask any UAV builder worth their solder, and they’ll tell you the same!

What makes it so good, you ask? It’s simple. Openness. Just like a picnic on a sunny day, DroneCAN offers open communication, specification, and multiple open implementations. That means no pesky locked doors or exclusive clubs, just pure, open-source goodness to play around with.
