Crash GPS?

Posted by Wayne Francis on November 21, 2013 at 5:18pm

Well after testing my first mission all was fine. upon the second mission it flew off on it own and i wasnt quick enough to grab it back. After some more missions and testing i see in my logs im losing gps. this is only happening when i switch it into auto mode while its in stab i have full 12-14 sats. i running a U-blox Neo-6m gps. its mounted at the back of the quad with the light (led) side facing up. have i done something wrong and how do i fix this.

Thanks Wayne

    Yeah if thats the case then it is upside down. Thought it might be. So why is it working most of the time and not when i need it to then

    The LED is on the bottom of my GPS. Did you perhaps mounted upside down?
    The electronic components should be facing down, and the smooth ceramic square antenna faces up.
