The Ground station has it's own batteries, of course. The onboard drain appears minimal as we have 2 aircraft, one with RTK and the other without. We have 2 Cendance controllers, one with teh RTK package and I have not seen a meaurable impact.

I see the Phantom 4 Pro V2.0 has 2 compasses.  Obviously, it only has Compass 1, is RTK compass 2?

That's an odd question ... Please consult the manual on why there are 2 compasses.
P4P V2 is not equipped with RTK, that's a different DJI airframe. (link)
