Orion

The Aerium Orion is a dual-band GNSS module, powered by the u-blox NEO-F10N, delivering L1/L5 precision, faster satellite acquisition, and robust performance in even the most challenging environments. Paired with the Isentek IST8310 magnetometer, it provides accurate heading and orientation data to complement its positioning capabilities. Fully compatible with Pixhawk flight controllers, Aerium Orion is engineered for UAV, robotics, and embedded applications where compact design, top-tier performance, and absolute reliability are essential.
