RTK Drops at Sunset? Ionospheric Scintillation for Drones
A sunset RTK dropout in low latitudes is usually the ionosphere, not the airframe: what scintillation does to drone GNSS and how IONO+ keeps a fix.

A Mosaic-G5 P3H field test measured Galileo HAS at 10 cm in open sky – about 5 minutes to 20 cm and 12 minutes to 10 cm. What free satellite PPP changes for drone mapping, inspection and survey flights.
Millimeter-level GNSS displacement monitoring for bridges, dams and buildings. How RTK receivers keep critical infrastructure safe.
Jammertest 2025 tested Septentrio AIM+ receivers through ~100 jamming and spoofing scenarios. Here’s what the results mean for UAV operators — and which receivers carry that protection.
How the official Septentrio ROSaic driver (septentrio_gnss_driver) integrates mosaic-X5 / AsteRx GNSS/INS receivers with ROS 1 & ROS 2 for UAVs: 30+ topics, firmware requirements, INS YAML setup, OSNMA and multi-source RTK.
Why RxTools is the professional configuration and diagnostics software for Septentrio GNSS receivers in UAV integration: native Linux, integrated spectrum analysis, ASCII commands, and message-level differential link monitoring.
