Drotek Official Distributor in Europe
Official Drotek distributor in Europe. French-made RTK GNSS receivers built on the u-blox ZED-F9P, multi-band GNSS antennas, magnetometers and airspeed sensors for UAV, UGV, surveying and robotics. EU invoicing, 0% VAT for EU business buyers, worldwide FedEx delivery.
European-designed and European-manufactured. Drotek builds in France, which means a supply chain that does not run through Asia, consistent hardware revisions, and long-term availability for production programmes.
Choosing your RTK GNSS receiver
All four receivers use the same u-blox ZED-F9P engine and deliver centimetre-level RTK accuracy. The difference is form factor and how you intend to mount and integrate them.
| Model | Form factor | Includes | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|
| DP0601 RTK GNSS | XL board | ZED-F9P receiver | General UAV and robotics integration, custom enclosures |
| DP0602 RTK GNSS | Mini PCIe | ZED-F9P receiver | Embedded systems, industrial PCs, carrier boards with mPCIe slot |
| SIRIUS RTK GNSS Base | Enclosed unit | ZED-F9P, housing, mounting | Fixed base station broadcasting corrections |
| SIRIUS RTK GNSS Rover | Enclosed unit | ZED-F9P + RM3100 magnetometer | Rover requiring both position and heading, ready to mount |
Base and rover work as a pair. The base sits over a known point and broadcasts corrections; the rover applies them to reach centimetre accuracy. If your area already has an NTRIP correction service, you may only need the rover.
Choosing your GNSS antenna
The antenna matters as much as the receiver. A ZED-F9P paired with a single-band antenna cannot deliver multi-band RTK, and a good receiver on a poor antenna will not hold a fix. Match the antenna’s bands to the constellations and signals you intend to use.
| Antenna | Bands | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| u-blox ANN-MB | L1/L2 multi-band | Entry-level RTK, base or rover, best value |
| u-blox ANN-MB2 | L1/L2/L5/E6/B3 all-band | Future-proof builds, Galileo E6 and BeiDou B3 |
| DA233 | Multi-band | Compact airborne mounting |
| DA275 | Triple-band L1/L2/L5 | Balanced size and performance on UAVs |
| DA435 | Triple-band L1/L2/L5 | Larger ground plane, base stations and vehicles |
| DA910 | Multi-band | High-performance ground and base installations |
| TW3742 Tallysman | GPS / GLONASS / BeiDou / Galileo | Survey-grade work where multipath rejection matters |

Navigation sensors
RM3100 professional-grade magnetometer. A three-axis magnetometer with far better noise performance than the sensors integrated into most autopilots. Where heading is unreliable near motors, power cables or steel structures, an external RM3100 mounted away from interference solves it. Supplied standalone or built into the SIRIUS rover.
Sensirion SDP3x airspeed sensor kit. Differential pressure sensing for fixed-wing and VTOL platforms, where accurate airspeed rather than groundspeed determines stall margin and efficient cruise. Supplied as a kit with pitot tubing.
Why buy Drotek from A-Trix Group
Official distribution, genuine hardware. Supplied through the official channel with manufacturer warranty and firmware support. ZED-F9P counterfeits and relabelled boards are a real problem in this market — buying through the official channel removes that risk entirely.
European supply chain. Drotek manufactures in France; we hold and ship from Estonia. Nothing in the chain depends on Asian manufacturing lead times or shifting trade conditions.
Inside the EU customs union. Shipments within the EU cross no customs border — no import duty, no clearance paperwork, no surprise fees on delivery.
Express shipping at contract rates. We ship worldwide under a FedEx contract, so delivery costs materially less than the published rates.
Engineering answers before you buy. Which antenna suits your ground plane. Whether you need a base or just an NTRIP subscription. How to wire the RM3100 away from interference. Our team includes developers from Riga Technical University, working with our founder — a Senior Member of IEEE, lecturer at Riga Technical University, and author of registered patents in AI and unmanned systems.
One supplier for the whole build. GNSS, autopilot, gimbal camera, motors and cables on a single invoice, from a supplier who checks the parts work together. We also stock CubePilot, TOPOTEK, T-MOTOR, BaseCam and SIYI.
Who we supply
- UAV and UGV manufacturers and system integrators
- Surveying, mapping and photogrammetry companies
- Precision agriculture and autonomous machinery developers
- Robotics and autonomous navigation teams
- Research institutes and universities
- Infrastructure inspection contractors
How ordering works
1. Send your list. Part numbers and quantities, or describe the platform and the accuracy you need.
2. We confirm price, availability and lead time. We verify current stock and pricing with the manufacturer rather than quoting from a stale catalogue, so the figure you receive is the figure that holds.
3. You receive a formal quotation. Business customers with a valid EU VAT number registered outside Estonia are invoiced at 0% VAT under the reverse charge mechanism. We issue proforma invoices and accept purchase orders — necessary for universities, research institutes and public bodies whose procurement cannot pay by card.
4. We ship. FedEx express worldwide at contract rates. Within the EU, no customs and no import duty.
For OEM and volume buyers
Running a production programme rather than a prototype? We coordinate directly with Drotek on volume pricing, scheduled deliveries against your build plan, consistent hardware revisions across a run, and committed lead times. We also quote at BOM level across Drotek and the rest of our range.
About Drotek
Drotek Electronics designs and manufactures precision positioning and navigation hardware in France. The company built its reputation on u-blox based RTK GNSS boards that give surveying-grade accuracy at a fraction of traditional survey equipment cost, and has since expanded into multi-band antennas, magnetometers and sensor kits for unmanned systems.
The hardware is widely used with ArduPilot and PX4 and integrates directly with common autopilot platforms including CubePilot.
Frequently asked questions
Is A-Trix Group an official Drotek distributor?
Yes. A-Trix Group OÜ is an official Drotek distributor supplying Europe and worldwide, with genuine hardware and manufacturer warranty.
What is the difference between the DP0601 and DP0602?
Both use the same u-blox ZED-F9P receiver. The DP0601 is an XL format board for general integration; the DP0602 is a Mini PCIe card for embedded systems and industrial computers with an mPCIe slot.
Do I need a base station, or just a rover?
If a network RTK or NTRIP correction service covers your area, a rover alone is usually enough. If you work outside coverage, or need full control over the reference point, you need your own base.
Which antenna should I pair with a ZED-F9P?
A multi-band antenna is essential — a single-band antenna cannot deliver multi-band RTK regardless of the receiver. The u-blox ANN-MB is the value choice; the DA275 suits airborne mounting; the DA435 and DA910 suit base stations with more space for a ground plane.
Why use an external RM3100 magnetometer?
Magnetometers built into autopilots sit close to power distribution and motors, where magnetic interference degrades heading accuracy. An external RM3100 mounted away from that interference gives a substantially cleaner heading reference.
Can I buy without VAT?
Yes. Business customers with a valid EU VAT number registered outside Estonia are invoiced at 0% VAT under the reverse charge mechanism.
Do you accept purchase orders from universities and public institutions?
Yes. We issue formal quotations and proforma invoices and accept purchase orders. Tell us the format your procurement department requires.
Will I pay customs or import duty?
Not within the EU. Goods ship from Estonia and cross no customs border. Outside the EU we ship as an export with full documentation.
