Bynav X8-M2 Series GNSS/INS Positioning Box

By Bynav ↗

The Bynav X8-M2 Series GNSS/INS Positioning Box provides RTK positioning for integration into UAV and other navigation systems. Its IP65 enclosure contains high-precision positioning modules with multiple communication interfaces. Five variants differ in antenna count, heading capability, message rates and optional dead reckoning, which requires wheelspeed input.

Product overview

The Bynav X8-M2 Series is a positioning box built around integrated high-precision positioning modules. Its role in a UAV installation is to provide positioning and, in the dual-antenna variants, heading information. The enclosure carries an IP65 rating, while L1, L2 and L5 reception, L-Band and CLAS support, and anti-jamming capability define its signal-processing features. Connections include 4G LTE, Bluetooth and USB. The free By Center Android app supports Bluetooth connection, RTK configuration and setup for mapping or testing.

Configuration depends on the selected model. X8-M20D and X8-M21D use two antennas and specify heading accuracy of 0.2°/1m; the other three variants use one antenna and have no heading-accuracy value specified. Maximum GNSS message rates are 10 Hz for X8-M20 and X8-M20D, and 5 Hz for the remaining variants. X8-M21, X8-M21D and X8-M22 additionally specify 100 Hz INS messages. Their optional dead-reckoning function requires wheelspeed input, making that input a concrete integration requirement when this capability is selected.

Across the series, horizontal RTK positioning accuracy is 1 cm + 1 ppm RMS and vertical RTK accuracy is 1.5 cm + 1 ppm RMS. Single-point accuracy is 1.5 m horizontally and 2.5 m vertically, both RMS. Typical first positioning times are 30 seconds from a cold start and 5 seconds from a hot start. Variant selection also affects dead-reckoning accuracy: X8-M21 and X8-M21D specify 0.8% at 2σ, while X8-M22 specifies 0.2% at 2σ, with the wheelspeed-input requirement applying.
