I was having problems with mine on my Pi4 build with actually locking in satellites. After trying several things, the only one that seemed to actually work good was adding a USB extension cable and just moving the GPS away from the main unit. It locked in so fast and held great accuracy after that.

Purchased this to use on a Raspberry Pi 3 Stratux build for use with Garmin Pilot. Stratux recognized the GPYes right away, and I had very accurate GPS data throughout my entire flight in Garmin Pilot. It took about 10 minutes for the GPYes to calibrate itself and establish a GPS fix on first use, but subsequent boots are much quicker. Generally speaking, the longer you leave it turned off, the longer it'll take to get a fix, but after that it works beautifully. By the time you complete your runup, the GPYes is ready to go.

This is the second unit I ordered in one week and both were defective. I tested with different USB GPS on RPi 3B+ and all units worked perfectly. With Stratux GPYes 2.0, the module would get mode in 3D but Lat/Lon would read 0.00 and EPS would alternate between 1.5 and 160Kts. After numerous reboot, the Lat/Lon would come one but would be frozen, Px would not change even while in a moving car. Seems like a bad batch as I bought a GPYes 2.0 a few months ago and it still working good.

This GPS, as part of the Stratux portable ADS-B receiver set, works very well with Foreflight, the electronic flight bag application. If you're an aviator and you use a WiFi only tablet without a GPS, this item can provide you with moving map functionality as part of a Stratux rig.Regarding its use in concert with the AHRS: it's still "experimental," and I wouldn't try an approach to minimums with it just yet. But as a GPS, it does what it says on the tin.

The GPS worked as stated. I used to make a Stratux. I also installed a shield between it and the radios and was able to go from 6-9meters accuracy to about 3.4m and it had over 19 satellites in solution tracking 30. Would buy again.

Great product for the Stratux home build. I like the internal GPS vs external for all the usual reasons. I was getting 30m fix BEFORE a special modification that I made. NOW I getting a 10m fix and much less fluctuations than prior to my add on...and that's on the ground in the backyard. Havent tried it in the plane yet, but prior to the mod I was getting a 30m fix in the air.So what I added was a piece of thin cardboard from a box of coke cans. I carefully wrapped one side of the cardboard with two plys of kitchen aluminum foil. Then slipped the the homemade EMI/RFI shield inbetween the GPS and the SDRs. And what-d-know...it works much better! My thinking was the SDRs were affecting performance even with GPS inserted into the top USB port. The aluminum foil seems to provide an additional shielding. Hope this helps anyone else that's tinkering with their Stratux!

GPS works well. Works much better when external gps antenna is attached.

Purchased to replace a u-blox 7 antenna that was not acquiring satellites in a Stratux ADSB-In receiver. Within 5 minutes of plugging in and indoors, I had 15+ satellites in view and a WAAS fix. I did have to fiddle with the radio antenna wires because they seemed to interfere with reception, but once I had that solved, the unit is working great. A cheap upgrade for those with older Stratux units. Recommend upgrading the operating system.

Had difficulty picking up satellites initially, only picked up a few, and was intermittent reception. I rerouted antenna wires for sdl under the receiver, and now have awesome reception. I am still running the pi 2, and was able to accommodate with the WiFi usb by clipping a bit from the corner of the board on the gps unit.

I bought this as part of a bunch of parts to make a Stratux ADS-B receiver, as recommended by stratux.me. Nice high quality parts, all went together very well, quick & easy assemble. Finished product works well. Took less than an hour to put it all together. Sure beats paying $700 for Stratus, or even some $270 for a pre-assembled Stratux.

Very happy with the receiver in Stratux. Very fast lock, accurate, and -- like everything else -- turns on with a simple toggle switch in the Stratux settings page. All functions were enabled so quickly I couldn't believe it was already working. It's the best way to add GPS to your EFB on a non-GPS-enabled iPad. Note that compact GPSes tend to experience issues when combined with an SDR at the base of the antenna wire. I use mine with a PingEFB with the SDR at the far end of the USB cable, so the (far) SDR and (close) GPS receivers don't interfere with each other.I use my Stratux with FltPlanGo on an old iPad 2 and Avare on my Android phone.
