not
compatible with the RedEdge camera.

camera connector labeled
“GPS”.

GPS module connector labeled
“GPS”.
For more advanced integrations where
GPS data is provided by the autopilot or

To remove connectors, do not pull on
wires; instead use a small flathead

before
turning on the camera.
Failure to do so may damage the GPS module.
