hi, I am planning to integrate reach on the uav with pixhawk as a secondary GPS for accurate geotagging. I wonder what's optimal size for the metal plate for both the rover and the base. I read from the doc that it should be at least 70mm. However, I wonder if it's the larger, the better? Because I read from previous post the the 200mm ground panel would give better result than the 100mm one. Besides, I noticed that a more decent MAXTENA antenna was used in the official video, I wonder if it's necessary to upgrade with this on the UAV? It would be really helpful if there is any info on testing with other alternatives, of course, including the original antenna comes with the kit.
Also, since the reach module board has the built-in imu, I wonder if it is required to be mounted with anti-vibe foam securely on the airframe (but I wonder what is the usage of the imu on the uav since it's not used for navigation..)?
Many thanks for your help in advance,
