GPS – Model CUAV NEO 4 SE

The CUAV NEO 4 SE GPS Module Support Four Satellites is an advanced GNSS receiver designed for professional UAV and robotics applications requiring centimeter-level accuracy, reliability, and DroneCAN connectivity. Developed by CUAV, a leader in flight control and positioning systems, this module delivers fast positioning performance and robust signal reception even in complex environments.

With its integration of GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, and BeiDou, the NEO 4 SE achieves strong multi-constellation tracking for improved accuracy and stability during autonomous flight missions. Motionew recommends the CUAV NEO 4 SE as a professional-grade positioning solution for engineers integrating advanced Flight controller systems and UAV platforms.

Advanced GNSS Technology and Multi-Satellite Support

At the heart of the CUAV NEO 4 SE is a u-blox M10 GNSS chip, offering 25 Hz refresh rate and concurrent reception of up to four global navigation systems. This ensures exceptional positional accuracy and reduced signal latency, even in high-speed flight or challenging signal conditions.

The module’s DroneCAN protocol enables reliable data transmission between flight controllers and onboard devices, reducing interference and wiring complexity. This makes it an ideal component for large-scale UAV integration and distributed flight systems.

By supporting GPS + GLONASS + Galileo + BeiDou, the CUAV NEO 4 SE ensures consistent signal availability, faster lock times, and improved immunity to signal loss — a critical advantage for professional drone operations.

Compact Design and Easy Integration

The NEO 4 SE is built for compactness and durability. It is lightweight and provides excellent EMI protection, ensuring consistent performance across temperature variations.

The integrated safety LED indicator allows operators to visually monitor satellite status and connection quality, simplifying field diagnostics. The module’s standard DroneCAN interface allows seamless connection with CUAV flight controllers such as CUAV X7+, CUAV Nora, or CUAV V5+, making it a drop-in upgrade for existing systems.

Reliable Performance in Demanding Environments

CUAV designed the NEO 4 SE for professional applications that require high precision, stability, and strong anti-jamming capability. The module performs reliably in:

• Surveying and Mapping – Provides accurate positioning for mapping camera integration.
• Industrial UAV Operations – Ensures stable navigation during long-range and autonomous flights.
• VTOL and Fixed-Wing Drones – Offers consistent satellite tracking at high speed and altitude.
• Agricultural Drones – Enhances positioning accuracy for automated spraying and field mapping.

The multi-satellite and high-frequency update capabilities make it suitable for real-time navigation, where positioning lag or drift can impact mission success.

Compatibility and Connectivity

The CUAV NEO 4 SE supports DroneCAN communication for improved signal integrity and system reliability. It eliminates the traditional UART bottleneck by offering faster data exchange and simplified cabling between modules.

This GPS module is compatible with major UAV platforms running PX4 or ArduPilot, providing developers and engineers flexibility in integrating it across open-source and proprietary drone ecosystems.
