Beitian BN-880 GPs and Compass Module Experiments - 1
So this will be a quick post, links mostly.
I decided to get a Beitian BN-880 GPS/Compass module
for experiments I have in mind.
So, I hooked it up to an Arduino Uno.
Here is the wiring diagram:
Note, the wiring colors are meaningless, as each
manufacturer supplies cables with different colored
leads. As you can see here, red is not power, and
black is not ground.
The sketch I used to test the set-up came from the GPS library:
TinyGPS++
The sketch I demo in the video is the basic example.

Thankyou so very much. I was fighting with the BN880 all weekend then Sunday night I found your video and realized I was using the wrong pins for the TX and RX. For some reason I thought they had to be analog pins but as soon as I moved them to digital the sketches started working. Now to figure out why the altitude is off and the time is out of whack.
Glad this worked out for you, I have a couple more on the BN880 planned.
then the question I have is what pins on the UNO do you connect a motor controller up to so you could steer a boat (rudder) to waypoints via the beitian?

Hello Revkem:
Here's a link to a video where I answer this.
