HK GCS 1.2.75 Lockup

Posted by Joe on April 25, 2011 at 7:39am

As always thanks for the APM  and GCS programs!

I understand  APM 2.xxx software is Beta.

Just making sure I'm not making an obvious mistake.

Also posted in APM ISSUES section.

 

Just wondering if anyone else is having lockup issues with the latest version of HK GCS?  VER 1.2.75

What I mean by lock up is after starting the program and establishing a wireless link the program completely freezes, it will not accept any type of input from the computer. This happens within 1 minute  after the link is established. After trying to close the program windows diplays "HappyKillmore's Ground Station is not responding".

I have loaded and reloaded the GCS program, apm software, Xbee firmware on etc., on both a Vista and an XP machines.

The program appears to work fine via the USB connection.

I am able to successfully connect via xbees using APM 1.02 and earlier versions of HKS GCS.

 

The GCS included in ArduPilotMega Planner 0.4.20 seems to work properly.

 

 

HK GCS  VER 1.2.75

APM 2.0.12 (BAT Mon, compass, airspeed, UBLOX all enabled)

900mhz xbees (from diy drones store)

WIN VISTA and XP

 

Any ideas? I have run out.

    1.2.75 was a mess. Please download 1.2.76 and let me know if it fixes your problems!?!?

    I am having the same problem with the HK GCS. It seems to have been a problem in the last couple of versions. I run fine for a while and then it just freezes and I have to kill the software.

    Sorry, no solution for you, just solidarity!
