So I have this UBlox 7M GPS Module that came with my APM 2.8 and I have it plugged in correctly (I'm almost positive). When I power up the quad (it's an F450 clone), the GPS has a blue light that flashes twice, every few seconds so I know it has power, but I can't get any sort of GPS lock. Nothing shows up for GPS data on APM planner, and I never get the solid blue LED on the APM. I also don't get a blinking blue on the APM. What should I do? Also, I have done no programming on the GPS, I just opened the box and plugged it in. Thank you!

put it outside and wait a good 20min or so, it probably needs to donwnload the calendar data thing which it has to do every so often then it should be fine....but if you want to you can also use ublox application to dowonald it manually to the GPS , there are some youtube videos how to do this.
