MAVLink GPS: Indoor Navigation Injector
FLY WHERE GNSS FAILS
Unlock true indoor autonomy for your ArduPilot or PX4 drone. MAVLink GPS turns your Android phone into a powerful external navigation unit, leveraging the massive processing power in your pocket to navigate stadiums, warehouses, and urban canyons where standard GPS hardware goes blind.
🎯 THE PROBLEM: Standard GPS is Weak
Conventional GPS modules rely on weak satellite signals that cannot penetrate concrete roofs. In cities, signals bounce off skyscrapers (multipath), causing dangerous position jumps. If you fly indoors, your drone drifts blindly.
💡 THE SOLUTION: Network Fusion
Your phone is a supercomputer. MAVLink GPS harvests Android’s advanced "Fused Location" engine—combining WiFi, Cellular, and IMU data—to calculate a valid 3D position even when satellites are invisible. It injects this data directly into your Flight Controller via USB, tricking the drone into thinking it has a perfect GPS lock.

🚀 KILLER FEATURES
CONCRETE PENETRATION
Navigate deep inside concrete structures, basements, and convention centers. By triangulating WiFi Access Points and Cell Towers, MAVLink GPS maintains a solid position lock where U-Blox chips see zero satellites.
ZERO-DRIFT STABILITY
Optical Flow sensors drift over time and fail in low light or on smooth floors. MAVLink GPS provides absolute positioning coordinates, eliminating unbounded drift without the $10,000 cost of a Vicon motion capture system.
INSTANT "COLD BOOT"
Stop waiting 5 minutes for satellite almanacs to download. Your phone grabs location data instantly over LTE/5G. Go from your pocket to a "3D Fix" in seconds, not minutes.
MULTIPATH REJECTION
Urban environments confuse standard GPS chips with reflected signals. This app uses your phone’s advanced filtering to discard bad data, providing a clean, "sane" position stream for safe flight between buildings.

🛡️ PROFESSIONAL GRADE
INTEGRATED OFFLINE MAP
Visualize your position on a high-contrast, cyberpunk-styled vector map. The app automatically downloads a global offline database, ensuring you have full situational awareness even in RF-shielded bunkers with zero internet.
EKF3 OPTIMIZED
We don't just send coordinates; we send confidence. The app intelligently adjusts accuracy reporting based on signal quality, ensuring the ArduPilot EKF knows exactly when to trust the GPS and when to rely on its internal sensors.
PLUG & PLAY USB
No complex wiring. Just connect your phone to your Flight Controller's USB-C port. The app auto-detects the connection, configures the link (115200 baud), and starts navigating immediately.

COMPATIBILITY
* Flight Controllers: Cube Orange, Pixhawk 4/6, Matek, and any STM32-based FC running ArduPilot or PX4.
* Software: Fully compatible with Mission Planner and QGroundControl monitoring.
* Hardware: Requires an Android 8.0+ phone and a USB OTG cable.
SAFETY FIRST
Includes a built-in "Deadman Switch." If your phone loses its location fix, the app automatically stops injection, triggering your drone's standard GPS Failsafe (Land/AltHold) to prevent flyaways.
