Pre-assembled ready-to-use NT modules are currently - unfortunately - not available commercially.

However, the CC3D Atom can easily be used as a NT Imu module. The GLB mini CC3D atom provides the most compact solution but is more currently probably the best option, or when shipping time matters the BG CC3D atom (see post #2 for links).

the "mini CC3D atom" is currently probably the best and easiest and cheapest solution to get a NT imu module


[B]Sources for cables:[/B]

Unfortunately I don't know about a good, i.e reasonably priced and readily available, source of suitable pre-configured cables with plugs. The 1mm JST has however become kind of a standard and is used by many electronics, such as flight controllers, AM gimbal controllers, etc., which gives options. Some options I know a about are:

explore the shop carefully and study the various options for configuration which are offered, with the right clicks it offers actually some good deals

The silicon wires are not as flexible as for other imu module wires, but in lack of better options OK. Quite expensive.
