Hi Guy's
I flew my first gps missions today. went great 1. and 2. mission, but 3. mission
it fell out of the sky.
I dont know what happend. But battery was disconnected, when i found the quad.
it landed on it's feet, no visible damage . i took it home to check. Found nothing..
exept battery on gps came off. solderd it back on.
now the board dosen't see,or connect with gps. gps gets fix. green light blue flash. ublox lea6h
i cant figure out why.
i am a noob at this.

@Frederik,
It sounds like either the GPS cable or the connector on the GPS might have been damaged in the crash if the APM is not connecting with the GPS. If the crash was bad enough for the GPS battery to break off, then there is a good chance that the GPS connector might be damaged also.
If you have the standalone GPS (not the GPS/Compass module), you can get this GPS to FTDI cable Adapter Cable and use the uBlox Configuration Tool Tool to try and communicate with the GPS independently of the APM.
