CubePilot Here 3 Precision GNSS Module can I use it a stand alone unit? and will it give me x, y and z coordinates?
it need to be accurate to one centimeter.
Also can I use it as a rtk base station.
Hello @styx and welcome to the forum,
To use the CubePilot Here 3 Precision GNSS Module on RTK mode you need the following hardware:
Computer, telemetry modules, Here3, Base Antenna, Base, Tripod(Stand)
You can find more information here:

Sorry to resurrect this one, but I’ve been trying to get the same answer about using the here 3. I’m looking to connect it to an arduino due, but all the documentation on the site or in various videos involve connecting it to a cube autopilot. Do I need this to make the here 3 work?
Hello @Jlward73!
involve connecting it to a cube autopilot. Do I need this to make the here 3 work?
Yes, this would be the simplest set up.
Here 3 uses CAM communication and the Arduino DUE board only has a CAN controller but needs a CAN transceiver for transmitting into the CAN network, for example:
There is also no Arduino library for this, although you could try modifying a library that uses a similar chip, like this
https://www.arduino.cc/reference/en/libraries/sparkfun-u-blox-gnss-arduino-library/
And change the communication protocol from I2C to CAN
However if what you need is a GPS module to use with Arduino a better option could be in the Shield/Hat/Cape GPS Modules or UART/SPI/I2C GPS Modules sections of the store.
