How Can You Achieve Centimeter-Level Positioning Accuracy in Your Pixhawk-Based Drone Designs?

The HAWK R1 delivers centimeter-level RTK positioning through L1+L5 dual-frequency reception across GPS, GLONASS, GALILEO, BEIDOU, and QZSS constellations with 135-channel tracking. Its lightweight helical antenna design reduces payload weight while enhancing RTK stability, directly extending flight time and improving operational efficiency. Contact us to integrate this proven Pixhawk-compatible solution into your next-generation UAV platform and gain a competitive edge with superior positioning accuracy.

Designed for professional drone manufacturers and operators, the HAWK R1 features fast Time-To-First-Fix, rapid RTK convergence, and superior sensitivity with low power consumption. It supports SBAS systems (WAAS, EGNOS, MSAS, GAGAN) and offers default 5Hz update rates with capability up to 10Hz for high-dynamic applications. The built-in super capacitor reserves system data for rapid satellite acquisition, while three LED indicators provide clear status monitoring for power, PPS, and data transmission. With official integration into Pixhawk and ArduPilot documentation, the HAWK R1 represents a proven, production-ready RTK solution for autonomous flight systems demanding centimeter-level accuracy and exceptional reliability in challenging environments.

HAWK R1
   

HAWK R1 is L1+L5 dual-frequency RTK centimeter-level receiver designed for Pixhawk(PX4) platform-based UAV. The receiver is capable of concurrently tracking all global civil navigation systems, including GPS, GLONASS, GALILEO, BEIDOU and QZSS. It acquires both L1 and L5 signals at a time to achieve centimeter-level RTK positioning accuracy.

The built-in lightweight helical antenna not only enhances RTK positioning stability, but also increases the flight time of the drone. The fast Time-To-First-Fix, RTK convergence, superior sensitivity and low power consumption make it become better RTK receiver solution for Pixhawk(PX4) platform-based UAV.

FEATURES

  • Centimeter-level RTK high position accuracy
  • Concurrent reception of L1 and L5 band signals
  • Support GPS, GLONASS, BEIDOU, GALILEO, QZSS
  • Capable of SBAS (WAAS, EGNOS, MSAS, GAGAN)
  • Support 135-channel GNSS
  • Fast TTFF at low signal level
  • Free hybrid ephemeris prediction to achieve faster cold start
  • Default 5Hz, up to 10 Hz update rate*
  • Build-in super capacitor to reserve system data for rapid satellite acquisition
  • Three LED indicator for Power, PPS and Data transmit
    *Note: SBAS support 5Hz only.



APPLICATIONS

  • Unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) positioning and navigation
