There are two main approaches for getting yaw from GPS - either dual FP9 RTK or a device that has two antenna and supports this feature. The table using multiple columns to show this information.

What this does is have a single heading for GPS Yaw that links down in the doc to a high level overview. In the table the ✓ has been replaced by a link to the docs explaining how to set up the specific device.

Down below I've made it clear why you do this and point back up for instructions.

@vincentpoont2 @julianoes Can you please sanity check?

For example, here we link to the unicore specific setup docs.

When using GPS for yaw fusion you will need to configure the following parameters:
Generally when using a GNSS as a source of yaw information you will need to configure the following parameters:

So the params below seem to be used by Unicore and by dual FP9 setups. Septentrio have a different setup. It isn't clear if these also need to be set for septentrio. Because of that I point to the device specific docs too.

Hope this makes sense @julianoes

### Configuring GPS as Yaw/Heading Source

GPS can be used as a source for yaw fusion when using modules where _yaw output is supported by the device_ (e.g. [Trimble MB-Two](../gps_compass/rtk_gps_trimble_mb_two.md)) or when using some [RTK GPS Setups with Dual u-blox F9P](../gps_compass/u-blox_f9p_heading.md).
GPS can be used as a source for yaw fusion when using a single device with two antenna where _yaw output is supported by the device_, or when using some [RTK GPS Setups with Dual u-blox F9P](../gps_compass/u-blox_f9p_heading.md).
Using GPS as a heading source has the benefit that yaw calculations are not impacted by magnetic interference.

Any other benefits? I guess without a compass you don't need a mast. However you are susceptible to GNSS jamming.
