Mission Planner...NOT RESPONDING

Gentlemen and ladies,

Is there a common and rather frequent occurance of "Mission Planner" freezing or "not responding" while in use?

I use "Windows 7" with no other programs running in the background except "Norton 360" and TSR programs. Mission Planner V1.3.30 (latest build) and earlier versions often (too often)quit in the middle of whatever session (e.g. "config/tuning" or "initial setup")is in progress.

Has anyone had this experience? If so is there a work around ? I am very discouraged when I am so continously forced to close the program, reboot it, then try to reconnect to mavlink or whatever else I was doing.

Thanks for your attention.

  • Did you try to stop Norton and test again?

    Never had a "freeze" with 1.3.30 or 1.3.30.1 using windows 7 (32 bits) and Avira antivirus.

    Since the last version you are experiencing I also have frequent lock-ups under windows 7 & 8; It happens erratically but it seems that it happens often when disconnecting or reconnecting a telemetry radio on the computer while an MP session was already active.

    • I experienced exactly the same issue as Hugues too yesterday, using windows 7 and MP 1.3.30.

      I pulled out the telemetry radio in the USB port without disconnecting MP and MP froze instantly, I had to switch off and restart.

      I normally have no issues with MP and generally disconnect before I remove the telemetry radio from the USB port.  

  • I am using windows 7 on an old laptop with very little RAM and no problems with MP,

    Thank you Michael great work with great features

  • Mine locks up all the time on the bench, while I'm changing settings.  I've not had any issues in flight yet.  win7 x64.

      I have MP running on 2 machines for several hours every day and almost never see it lock up
