## Single GPS Configuration

Connect the ARK MOSAIC-X5 RTK GPS to the flight controller's CAN port using a standard 4-pin JST-GH cable.

### Flight Controller Parameters

Set the following in *QGroundControl* and reboot the flight controller.

### CAN Node Parameters

The node publishes GPS, magnetometer and barometer data with its default parameters. To terminate the bus, fix the node ID, publish IMU data or change the receiver's output rate, PVT modes or dynamics model, see [Node Parameters](/products/gps/ark-mosaic-x5-rtk-gps/firmware.md#node-parameters).

## Troubleshooting

* See our [GPS Placement](/knowledge-base/knowledge-base/gps-placement.md) guide for mounting best practices, interference sources, and antenna positioning.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.arkelectron.com/products/gps/ark-mosaic-x5-rtk-gps/px4-instructions.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
