hello sorry for the spam to the forum, spent the last day trawling through trying to find an answer so i didnt have to ask!!
which ardusimple boards would i need for a base and rover for using rtk with, i had a look at their wifi ntrip caster and i like the sound of that. will i get away with the standard boards or is it better to spend the extra and get the f9p boards?
which antennas should i use for each of them?
many thanks yall!
Not sure which ntrip caster board are you referring to but most likely it is “just a caster”, does not have a GNSS receiver. You would need two GNSS receivers, F9P boards. Many solutions on top of that for a caster at the base.
These are the boards that most people are using. You need to purchase the antenna separately:
It’s better to buy the kit with the antenna I think.
You save 10$ on the antenna
But first you must know (and tell us) if you want send corrections over Internet(Ntrip) or radio, this will afect the hardware.
You need one kit for the vehicle and one for the base. For radio ArduiSimple also have complete kits.
For Ntrip you can buy their NtripMaster to put over the simpleRTK2B board or use a Raspberry Pi or esp32 board.
do i get the v3? https://www.ardusimple.com/product/simplertk2b-f9p-v3/
or the cheaper one https://www.ardusimple.com/product/simplertk2b/
this is the wifi caster xbee thing i was on about https://www.ardusimple.com/product/wifi-ntrip-master/
Correct, sorry.
This is exactly what I just bought this morning, plus a case for the board.
The cheaper one (that was suggested already) is fine with the wifi ntrip master.
