NEO-6M GPS Module

Looking for a value GPS module for your Arduino, Raspberry Pi, ArduCopter or other project? Now available from PMD Way is the NEO-6MV2 GPS Module. This isn't the smallest GPS module in our range however for the price it's much more affordable. 

The NEO-6M GPS Module is ideal for all sorts of development boards, Arduino projects and more. It can operate on voltages between 3 and 6V DC, and has a simple serial output which blasts out the NMEA GPS data at 9600 baud.

Arduino users - this works perfectly with the TinyGPS++ library. The antenna shown is also included.
