RM3100 Precision
Industrial PNI RM3100 sensor (USA) with 13 nT resolution and isolated coils for a stable, high-resolution heading.
Sensors
MagCore CAN
SKU · AAD-MAGCORE-CAN · RM3100
A high-precision RM3100 compass on the CAN bus. It daisy-chains straight onto the AAD CAN backbone over a single cable and mounts clear of motor and ESC EMI — for a clear heading even on high-current multirotors where other magnetometers lose the plot.
Key Advantage
Industrial-grade RM3100 with isolated coils — high noise immunity and a clear heading even on multirotors where motors defeat other magnetometers.
Highlights
Core specs and the combat-grade features that set MagCore CAN apart.

Single-Cable Daisy-Chain
CAN / DroneCAN node joins the shared AAD backbone — daisy-chain it on with one cable through its dual CAN connectors.
EMI Immunity
Isolated coils plus a digital CAN bus shrug off motor and ESC noise that swamps other magnetometers on high-current builds.
FC7 Compass Return
The recommended magnetometer for the BattleCore FC7 “compass return without GPS” feature in EW-contested airspace.

Frequently Asked Questions
How is MagCore CAN different from the I²C MagCore?
Same RM3100 precision, but as a DroneCAN node on the shared CAN bus (7–34 V, 2S–8S straight from the battery) with two connectors for daisy-chaining — one fewer dedicated port on the flight controller.
What is MagCore CAN compatible with?
MagCore CAN is built to run as one system on the AAD stack — it pairs with BattleCore FC7, NavCore DualBand, SensCore and MagCore.
How does MagCore CAN connect?
It connects via CAN · DroneCAN node on the shared CAN bus; Two CAN connectors for daisy-chaining; Pinout: CAN_H · CAN_L · VBAT · 5V · GND.
What's included in the box?
1× MagCore CAN module · CAN daisy-chain cabling.
Is MagCore CAN NDAA-compliant and made in the USA?
Yes — MagCore CAN is NDAA-compliant and made in the USA.
