Emlid Reach RS3 Survey Kit: Verticality is Now Optional

Look, we know why you’re here. You’re tired of holding a pole perfectly vertical while the British wind tries to turn you into a human kite. The Emlid Reach RS3 is here to tell you that verticality is a suggestion, not a law. With IMU-based tilt compensation, you can measure points at a 60-degree angle and still hit 20mm accuracy. It’s like magic, but with more satellites and less glitter. Whether you're dodging traffic or leaning over a ditch, the RS3 keeps you on target while you look significantly cooler than the guy still staring at a bubble level.

Why You Actually Want It

Traditional surveying is great if you enjoy staring at a spirit bubble until your eyes go cross-eyed. The RS3 uses a calibration-free IMU that doesn't care about magnetic interference. Stand near a metal fence? Fine. Near a truck? No problem. It initializes faster than your morning kettle (about 10-20 seconds), so you can get the job done and get back to the van before the clouds inevitably break. Yes, we see you skimming the specs. Just buy it already; your lower back will thank you.

Technical Specifications

• GNSS Tracking: GPS/QZSS, GLONASS, BeiDou, and Galileo (If it’s in orbit, we’re probably listening to it).
• Tilt Compensation: Up to 60° tilt with 20mm accuracy (Because standing straight is for soldiers and statues).
• RTK Fix: Typically gets a fix in 5 seconds (Faster than your attention span).
• Battery Life: Up to 22 hours of logging or 18 hours in RTK (Outlasts your phone, your tablet, and your patience).
• Connectivity: Built-in LTE Modem, LoRa (868/915 MHz), and UHF 450 MHz (Talking to bases like it’s 1999, but better).
• Storage: 16 GB internal memory (160+ days of 1 Hz logging).
• Durability: IP67 waterproof and elastomer-coated polycarbonate (Drop-resistant for the clumsy among us).
• Charging: USB-C (Finally, one cable to rule them all).

In the Box

• 2x Reach RS3 Receiver
• 2x LoRa Antenna
• 2x USB-C Cable
• 2x Hard Carry Case (To protect your investment from the chaos of the boot)

Compatibility

The RS3 plays nice with Emlid Flow (iOS/Android), Flow 360, and Emlid Studio. It speaks RTCM3 and NMEA fluently, and the UHF radio can even gossip with TRIMTALK™ 450S compatible bases. It’s basically the social butterfly of the GNSS world.

Highlights

• No Calibration Required: Works right out of the box. No weird 'figure-eight' dances in the middle of a field.
• Magnetic Immunity: Unaffected by metal structures, because physics shouldn't ruin your Tuesday.
• Industrial Battery: Handles 2000+ cycles. This thing will probably outlive the current government.

Notes

The UHF 450 MHz receiver requires a 410-470 MHz antenna (sold separately) if you want to use it as a rover with non-Emlid bases. Also, NTRIP corrections require a SIM card or a hotspot, unless you’ve figured out how to get 4G from a carrier pigeon.

Disclaimer

Accuracy depends on sky view. Don't try to survey inside a lead-lined bunker and then email support.

Still Here?

You’re either a bot, a very thorough procurement officer, or someone who really loves reading about GNSS receivers. Whatever the case, the Emlid Reach RS3 is the upgrade your fleet deserves. Get it from Unmanned Tech UK, where we ship fast because we know you have a deadline on Monday. Add to cart before the satellites move.
