GPS modules on long-range quads and wings fail from crash impact, water, and torn UART wires. We inspect the ceramic patch, compass (if present), and 5 V rail. A module that never gets a lock outdoors may be an antenna, a baud mismatch, or a dead GNSS chip — we do not guess from a photo alone.
This drone part repairing page is only for this part family. Use it if the board matches the heading — not as a generic “any drone repair” page. Mail-in is India-wide; the bench is in Jaipur. Repairability is decided after inspection, not from a photo alone.
| # | Symptom or damage |
|---|---|
| 1 | Zero satellites outdoors |
| 2 | Long time to first fix |
| 3 | Compass not healthy |
| 4 | UART not detected |
| 5 | Bent or cracked ceramic |
| 6 | Water under the can |
| 7 | 5 V pad burnt |
| 8 | Cable torn at the connector |
| Step | What we do |
|---|---|
| 1 | Photos of the GPS, cable, and mount |
| 2 | Ship the module |
| 3 | 5 V and UART check |
| 4 | Ceramic and compass inspection |
| 5 | Estimate vs a new GPS |
| 6 | Your approval |
| 7 | Connector or regulator work |
| 8 | Sky-view lock test when the chip is alive |
A shattered ceramic or a GNSS die with no replacement stock is usually replace. We will not “retune” a module that has no hardware fault.

Indoors almost every module shows 0. We test with a sky view. Still send it if it also fails outside.
Yes. Tell us the model (for example BN-880 class or a compact FPV GPS) on the form.
If the board is healthy, a cable or JST is often the whole job.
Consumer DJI Mini/Air GPS is usually not a separate mail-in board. This page is for FPV and RC aircraft GPS modules.
We confirm the module talks. You set ports in Betaflight or INAV for your build.
