RadioLink TS100 v2.0 M10N GPS
The RadioLink TS100 v2.0 M10N is a GPS module for drones, multirotors and advanced RC projects where stable positioning and good interference protection are important, even in environments with powerful video transmission, high-voltage lines or other strong signals. With dual interference protection technology, support for multiple satellite systems, a high-sensitivity ceramic antenna and a built-in compass, it offers fast satellite positioning, stable navigation and higher precision.

Dual technology against interference
The TS100 v2.0 is developed to reduce the impact of strong signal interference and is therefore especially useful in drone and UAV builds where the GPS module may be close to powerful video transmission, electronics, high-voltage lines or other sources of interference, which it effectively counteracts.
- Out-of-band rejection: Two-stage filtering with 78 dB attenuation helps filter out interference outside the band.
- In-band interference protection: A highly linear LNA with an in-band 1 dB compression point of -3 dBm minimizes the impact of smaller interference signals that pass through the filter.
Excellent GPS performance
The low loss in the pre-LNA circuit design is matched to the ceramic chip antennas, and the optimized circuit layout improves reception of very weak GPS signals while interference is attenuated, giving 50 cm positioning accuracy, fast satellite lock with up to 20 satellites in about 6 seconds under open sky and stable positioning even in challenging terrain such as valleys.
Support for multiple satellite systems
The TS100 v2.0 supports simultaneous operation of multiple satellite systems for better satellite coverage and more stable positioning, and uses triple frequency with 1561 ±1 MHz, 1575 ±1 MHz and 1602 MHz.
- BD1
- GPS L1
- Galileo E1
- GLONASS G1
Automatic protocol adaptation
The default protocol is NMEA, and when the TS100 v2.0 is connected to a flight controller the module detects which type is being used and automatically sets the same protocol; when disconnected, the protocol reverts to standard NMEA.

Good to know
GPS performance is affected by installation, antenna placement, surroundings, sources of interference, a clear view of the sky and the chosen flight controller, and best precision and fast satellite lock are normally achieved under open conditions with correct mounting. Always check that the TS100 v2.0 is compatible with your flight controller, firmware and wiring before installation.
